Yeah. Will also start fine if you simply remove
xmlParserAPIs-2.2.1.jar from ../lib/endorsed. However, removing
xmlParserAPIs-2.2.1.jar will break 1.4, I assume.
As Rick notes, the issue is that fact that xmlParserAPIs-2.2.1.jar
set's the javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory property to
org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl. Sun 1.5 has
altered the xslt package name in the 1.5 distribution. It's now
com.sun.org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl.
Our choices seem to be:
1. include xalan in our distribution
2. make geronimo.sh sensitive to the jre version (either by user
specified parameter or dynamic detection).
3. drop support of 1.4
Barring other options, adding xalan seems to be the way to go. We can
remove it in 2.0 :-) Hmmm. Dropping support for 1.4 is starting to
grow on me... Any other thoughts?
