additional classpath for tomcat5x not working

Hi all,

we have an application which is divided into serveral projects. One project containing all resources for the client (js, css, ...) is packaged as a war and will be deployed to tomcat5x in another project. This second project can only be packaged as jar due to deployment issues of another team in our company.
As I read in the documentation of the cargo plugin an additional classpath can be specified within a <location> as a dependency. This has no effect at runtime even the tomcat lists this path in the JspRuntimeContext at startup. A NoClassDefFoundError is thrown when instantiating a class out of the specified location. The jars listed in JspRuntimeContext are working correctly.
You can find my pom file below.
I tried to specify the dependency to the second project as a jar but this is a cycle dependency.

I hope you can help me.

Kind regards

Paul
