Bob,

I don't really understand it but what I heard was that any xml jar that
you want to add to your context will need to go in the $TOMCAT_HOME/lib
dir rather that your context's WEB-INF/lib dir.  XML apparently is
considered differently that your other .jar files.  Again, I don't know
exactly why but that seesm to be the case.  I have my xerces.jar in the
$TOMCAT_HOME/lib and the rest of my jars in the WEB-INF/lib and
everything is fine.


FYI:  Tomcat 3.2 comes with a jaxp.jar file for its own use.  If you
just drop your xerces.jar file in that lib directory you may encounter
problems (as I had) because the jaxp.jar will come before the xerces.jar
file in the CLASSPATH.  I renamed my xerces.jar to a_xerces.jar so that
I know it gets loaded first and that I won't run into a conflict with
the same classes listed in both jar files.
