Suggest replacing the VFS 2.0 jar in the Accumulo lib directory with a VFS 2.1-SNAPSHOT jar from [1]. There are some bugs that have been fixed, but VFS 2.1 has not been released yet. I did this and have not had many issues loading from HDFS since. Loading jars from file:/// should work, I believe some of the Accumulo tests are written that way.

While one solution may be to weed out and eliminate any such "redeploys," I am curious if anyone has used contexts to load jars from file:// or http:// locations? Thanks, Jonathan
