it does indeed look like the command is being executed from directly inside a user's home directory. However, the confusing part about this to me is that the stack trace is coming from org.mortbay (jetty) - so it seems like it's finding jetty somehow. Maybe somehow it's finding the right start.jar file to execute, but because it's coming strait from the home directory instead of the bin directory it's throwing off a relative path in an init directive?
