Sometimes things are so obvious when they're laid out right in front of
you : -)
Yes that was exactly the solution. These jars in
"Library/WebObjects/Extensions/" (or
C:\Apple\Local\Library\WebObjects\Extensions) are required at runtime
but they are not included by default in the default WOLips runtime
classpath.
Manually adding them to the run classpath options (in the User section)
fixes this problem
As an aside, I noticed that they are not included in the classpath
files in the deployed installations from WOLips either. So the
application container must implicitly look in the extensions folder at
boot time.
Thanks to both of you for your help
