hi all, Finally it started working!!!.The thing that i found out was that eventhough i had been copying the xalan-2.3.1.jar,xercesImpl-2.0.0.jar and xml-api.jar to the tomcat\common\endorsed directory,there was a copy of xerces.jar present in the tomcat\common\lib area.So i removed it from there and restarted tomcat and when i went to the portal and tried it again it started working perfectly. Thanks to everyone who took the time to help me out..i do really appreciate it. regards Gautam
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/28/03 10:00AM >>> It seems that the directory for the fixed jars is /common/endorsed, rather than /common/lib. See the thread at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-users&m=104616838802904&w=2 It fixed the problem for me.
