Thanks for the response, but I'm not sure what I'm looking in that  
java file. In the startProviders method, I found the following code:
// for dev testing only COMMENT IN WORKING ENVIRONMENT
         if (config.contains("dspace.dir")) {
             config = "/devel/dspace/config/dspace.cfg";
         }

which was *not* commented so I commented that code and rebuilt.   
Sadly, there was no change in the behavior.

The method builds the entityProvider list.  Is there supposed to be a  
database initialization there?  That seems unlikely.  If the web.xml  
file under the dspace-rest/webapp/WEB-INF directory points at my  
dspace.cfg, why wouldn't it connect to the database using the jdbc  
connect in db.url?  I noticed the pom.xml for the dspace-rest code has  
ojdbc14 under Oracle db support.  Is that correct?

Thanks,
