Hi Raynier,
There is a mechanism within Apache SOAP thit will allow you to explicitly
specify which JAXP-compliant parser to use. It sort of defeats the purpose
of JAXP, but when you are stuck, it seems a reasonable temporary fix. Try
adding the following:
<init-param>
<param-name>XMLParser</param-name>
<param-value>org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl</param-value>
</init-param>
within \soap-2_2\webapps\soap\WEB-INF\web.xml as a child of the first
<servlet> element (the one for the rpcrouter servlet). Then restart Tomcat.
Let me know if this doesn't work; I'll be up for a while yet.
Thanks,
-Matt
