Description

library-directory is ignored with the latest snapshot apache-tomee-1.0.0-beta-2-20111024.180646-18-webprofile.tar.gz.

This was not the case with the snapshot apache-tomee-1.0.0-beta-2-20111022.170518-16-webprofile.tar.gz.

The library directory is configured in application.xml with the option <library-directory>APP-INF/lib</library-directory>.

Probably the option is not ignored but something with the classloader management changed in the latest snapshot so that servlet classes located in a JAR in the library-directory are not found. A sample stack trace looks as follows:
