When viewing my webapp which works in previous versions of websphere, I get the error below (pasted at end cos it's huge). This looks very similar to PK60565, except that installing fix pack 17 for WAS doesn't fix the problem.

Got any ideas?

Turns out this is nothing to do with PK60565, the problem is that Websphere doesn't like the package name... taking the exact same code but renaming za.co.hsbc.gcsi.web.security to za.co.hsbc.gcsi.web.sec fixed it (which IMO is ridiculous, why have arbitrary restrictions on package names? I'm struggling to even see how a bug like this could occur).

That's almost certainly voodoo, I've never heard of a restriction on
package names outside the java* hierarchy. I suspect you had a build
problem on your previous package.
