Try copying your classes to /common/lib (or /common/classes). This way they
are available to tomcat internal classes also.
Is that the full stack trace? The class hierarchy that invokes Class.forName
will help identify which classloader is trying to load your classes. I
suspect one of tomcat's own classes.
