Typically, during development, I have all jars my application needs (application specific, struts, jdbc drivers etc) in WEB-INF/lib. I am only resorting to the skulduggery described below in desperation. Everything my application needs *is* in WEB-INF/lib. I am moving only this one jar that contains the "missing class" around in an effort to get *any* classloader to pick it up.

That may be causing the problem. You should always put struts.jar in /WEB-INF/lib of each app that uses it. Your business logic jars should go in /WEB-INF/lib as well.
