Hi Craig, I did some further testing with this strange error. I've added some debug code to org.apache.cocoon.components.classloader.RepositoryClassLoader to find out when the class that's causing the error (javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest) is being loaded. I did find a difference when running under NT or Linux: Under Linux HttpServletRequest is loaded near line 120 with the call 'c = findSystemClass(name);'. Under NT this call fails and HttpServletRequest gets loaded near line 130 with the call 'c = cl.loadClass(name);'. Again, under NT everything works just fine, where under Linux I get 'java.lang.LinkageError: Class javax/servlet/http/HttpServletRequest violates loader constraints' resulting in a major :-(( May be someone knows what's causing this.
