Martin,

The Xalan and Xerces implementations built into JDK1.4 are outdated. Cocoon2 won't run 
with them. 

Yes, This will have effects on other applications. The other option is to set 
TOMCAT_OPTS
environment variable as follows: 

TOMCAT_OPTS=-Xbootclasspath/p:C:\cocoon2\tools\lib\xalan-2.2.0.jar;C:\cocoon2\tools\lib\xerces-1.4.4.jar;C:\cocoon2\tools\lib\xml-apis.jar


This is what happens under the covers when you place the jars in jre\lib\endorsed 
directory.

Thanks,
dims
