On WAS 7.0 during application startup I'm facing exceptions similar to the following:

My application uses Seam and JSF and has a faces-config.xml file. Apart from that it utilizes a few frameworks which have bundled faces-config.xml (QuipuKit, MyFaces Tomahawk...). The exception occasionally occurs in any one of those. Sometimes, there is no exception and the application works.
Do I need to do some WAS configuration, change the packing of my application, configure classloading (using child first for my web archive)?
Packing is:
+ test.ear + test.war + WEB-INF faces-config.xml + lib quipukit.jar tomahawk.jar
Regards,
Magnus
