    Can you extract any information from the condition
object?  That would provide more clues.

    As a guess: Is the structure name exported to the package
the aserve thread is in?  It may be that the condition being
reported is:  "X is not the name of a structure".

    This is an example of what I am describing.

;; define but dont use..
(defpackage :foo)
(defstruct foo::foo
   (bar 0))

;; not qualified - fails
(read-from-string "#S(foo :bar 0)")

;; qualified - works
(read-from-string "#S(foo::foo :bar 0)")
