Yes, plenty :)
The first one is to not crosspost, especially to lists where it is OT.
The second one is, don't put your security provider in WEB-INF/lib
unless you plan to remove it when the webapp is stopped (or don't
expect to reload your application). Even if you do remove it, it's a
little bit risky, and IMO bad design to do this kind of thing inside a
webapp.
And the third one is to post full stack traces.
