Did the test by moving all WEB-INF/classes stuff to WEB-INF/lib, and although I see some log4j stuff going on; more specifically:
08/03/04 02:53:12 Oracle Containers for J2EE 10g (10.1.3.3.0) initialized 08/03/04 02:53:28 log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.tapestry.services.TapestryModule.ServletApplicationInitializer). 08/03/04 02:53:28 log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. I still get 403 on the context root and 404 on context root + start. Do you suggest diving into 'ClassNameLocator' and the (changed) class loader behavior in OC4J 10.1.3 and up? To inform you; behavior is the same in OC4J11g - Oracle's JEE5 implemenation (currently in developer preview). When this is isn't fixed or tracked down I can see the people/companies that need to use OC4J leaving Tapestry for something different and/or not choosing Tapestry (5) in the first place.
