Java 7 was enabled on existing profile. Deployed application and IDE behaved strangely.

I tried many various options (changing class loading policy, changing build path JREs, removing struts support, deleting wstemp folder, putting xerces and xalan jars inside WEB-INF/lib folder) but nothing seems to work.

I was able to resolve this by enabling Java 7 again and AFTER that by creation of new WAS profile.
