Spring + JPA (Hibernate) on Glassfish --> ClassVisitor problem

Question

I'm trying to write a simple web app with Spring 2.5 (core + MVC) and JPA (using Hibernate for the persistence mechanism). Every time I deploy, I'm getting a "Class not found exception" that points to ClassVisitor.

This is a known version problem with the asm library. In a stand-alone app, I can make sure that the proper asm version is first in the classpath, but when I deploy them to the server, I'm still getting problem.

Is there some way I can guarantee that the server uses the proper jar file?

I'm tearing my hair out over this, and I don't have the hair to lose. :)

Thanks for any help,

You could put jar file into your Glassfish domain's "lib" folder.
