PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If a user deploys a different version of an exisitng class in the WebSphere lib directory to the lib/app directory (for example, Xerces), this could create a problem in the startup of the Admin Server.

RECOMMENDATION: If a user deploys a different version of an exisitng class in the WebSphere lib directory to the lib/app directory (for example, Xerces), this could create a problem in the startup of the Admin Server. The problem is due to the fact that the classpath for lib/app is also enabled for the Admin
Server, when it should be disabled.
