It was driving me bananas on a SPARC, but then I read the docs... ;-)

I moved everything to ~/public_html/classes, and the problem went away.  It
turns out that $HOME/public_html/ is one of the possible directories which are
okay to access as determined by the HOTJAVA_READ_PATH environment variable.
So, you have two choices: move your stuff to the directory, or change the
variable.

(this should be in the FAQ)
