ClassLoader problem in Servlet environment (Tomcat)

If I use a LocalDatabase...
   LocalDatabase db = new LocalDatabase();
   db.open("/tmp/ozoneDB", 3);
   db.reloadClasses();

   News news = (News) db.createObject( NewsImpl.class.getName());

I get this exception in the servlet (trimmed)...

If I use a RemoteDatabase...
   ExternalDatabase db = RemoteDatabase.openDatabase(
"ozonedb:remote://localhost:3333" );
   db.reloadClasses();

   News news = (News) db.createObject( NewsImpl.class.getName());

I get this exception in ozone (trimmed)...

I can make it work with RemoteDatabase by putting my WEB-INF/classes
directory in the classpath when I start ozone, but this is not a good
solution.

In fact, I need to be able to use only a LocalDatabase and no special
classpath treatments.  The app I'm developing will be deployed to a
third-party hosting provider where I will not have control over the
environment.  So, everything need to work from within the servlet
context.

Please help!

Thanks,
