Problem with embedded data-sources.xml and custom UserManager

Question

Hi all,
Our application uses a custom UserManager, which is basically extended from the JDBC UserManager, declared as follows in orion-application.xml:
     <user-manager class="com.infocorpnow.a2g.security.oracle.A2GUserManager">
          <property name="table" value="pos.users" />
          <property name="userNameField" value="username" />
          <property name="passwordFiled" value="password" />
          <property name="dataSource" value="jdbc/A2GDS" />
          <property name="groupMemberShipTableName" value="pos.user_roles" />
          <property name="groupMemberShipGroupFieldName" value="role_name" />
          <property name="groupMemberShipUserNameFieldName" value="login_id" />
     </user-manager>
Since we want to be able to deploy the application several times on the application server, and therefore have each deployment of the ear point to its own datasource (i.e. its own local "A2GDS"), we've found out how to embed data-sources.xml inside the EAR file we're deploying, and modify the orion-application.xml as follows:
     <data-sources path="./data-sources.xml" />
And then place data-sources.xml in the same meta-inf folder as the orion-application.xml.
This has worked fine when deploying to the standalone OC4J.
Now when I try to deploy the exact same EAR file in Oracle 9iAS, and I get to the User Manager screen, the Custom User Manager does not show up correctly. It did show up prior to me embedding the data-sources.xml. Please help? This is fairly urgent.
Thanks
Jason

I should also mention I'm using the Java Edition of 9iAS R2 (9.0.3 container) on Solaris.
