Interesting, I changed the Class-Path references from "./lib/library.jar" to "../lib/library.jar" (double period instead of single period), and it worked. So it seems that the initial base directory for Manifest classpath references for an EJB module is the EJB module itself, whereas for WAR files, the initial base directory is the EAR file. Is this done by design?
