Hi,

Is Tomcat installed in a directory with spaces in ? e.g. "C:\Program
Files\Tomcat"

If so, it is possible that the XML parser is throwing a hissy fit (Xerces
has a problem with reading XML in a directory with spaces in). I would guess
that it is trying the applications "current" directory - which seems to be
C:\WINDOWS\system32\.

Cheers,

Charles
