Looks like dom4j-full.jar contains both dom4j and jaxen. From you stacktrace I understand dom4j is in the classpath, and it can find jaxen, but when jaxen looks for dom4j it can't find it. I think the jaxen that has been loaded from dom4j isn't for some reason that one inside the dom4j-full.jar but another one that you have within your application server classpath (and not in your eclipse of course), perhaps loaded from a different classloader. Maybe you have a jaxen.jar in your shared libraries or something like this.
