    loading classes by unregistered classloader

      I really don't know where to post this message, so post it here.
      I have an ear containing sar archive. Ear uses own classloader repository defined in META-INF/jboss-app.xml. Sar contains MBean exporting service via RMI, all dependant classes are in the server lib directory.
      If I put ear into deploy directory and start Jboss (v 4.0.4, the same applies to 4.0.5) everything works fine.
      But if I redeploy ear, Jboss gives me NullPointerException (actually ClassNotFoundException) loading one of my classes.

      Detailed stack trace

      (Yes, it's spring RMI exporter)

      After class loading log investigation I've found 

      [2961838,RepositoryClassLoader,ScannerThread] Unregistering cl=org.jboss.mx.loading.UnifiedClassLoader3@1171d93{ url=file:/opt/jboss-4.0.4.GA/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp34664arch.ear ,addedOrder=33}

..............

      In first section - class loader destroyed, in second used again to load classes (between these two steps there is not classloading recreation)

      My guess - usage of unregistered classloader. Is it true? And how can I fix it?

      Thank you!
