I have fixed the problem by copying commmons-digester and
commons-beanutils (a dependancy of digester) from server/lib/ to
common/lib. I swear I didn't touch common/lib when I was deleting
things. I have no idea where they went or indeed if the libraries went
anywhere. I'd have to do a clean install to figure that out, and I'm too
lazy. :)
