I checked my classpath: I have the following jar files dealing with XML in that order: jaxp.jar; xerces.jar (version 1.2), xml4j.jar (2_0_15 I guess).
I used the TCP Tunnel/Monitor GUI to trace message. Here is the output I get from the server: HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 1842 Set-Cookie2: JSESSIONID=gss2dbsdf1;Version=1;Discard;Path="/soap" Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=gss2dbsdf1;Path=/soap Date: Fri, 17 May 2002 16:35:20 GMT Servlet-Engine: Tomcat Web Server/3.2.4 (JSP 1.1; Servlet 2.2; Java 1.3.1_03; Windows NT 4.0 x86; java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.) <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV ="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi ="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd ="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema"> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <SOAP-ENV:Fault> <faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server.Exception:</faultcode> <faultstring>java.lang.NoSuchMethodError</faultstring> <faultactor>/soap/servlet/rpcrouter</faultactor> <detail> <stackTrace>java.lang.NoSuchMethodError at bruno.SimpleService.<init>(SimpleService.java) at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:232) at org.apache.soap.server.http.ServerHTTPUtils.getTargetObject(ServerHTTPUtils.java:279) at org.apache.soap.providers.RPCJavaProvider.locate(RPCJavaProvider.java:117) at org.apache.soap.server.http.RPCRouterServlet.doPost(RPCRouterServlet.java:285) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:760) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ServletWrapper.doService(ServletWrapper.java:405) at org.apache.tomcat.core.Handler.service(Handler.java:287) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ServletWrapper.service(ServletWrapper.java:372) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.internalService(ContextManager.java:806) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.service(ContextManager.java:752) at org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpConnectionHandler.processConnection(HttpConnectionHandler.java:213) at org.apache.tomcat.service.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:416) at org.apache.tomcat.util.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:501) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:479) </stackTrace> </detail> </SOAP-ENV:Fault> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope> It seems that the RPCRouter try to load my class and call a method called init(). Why? I haven't any init( ) method. So I created one to see and effectively, I still get the same exception but the trace has one more line, showing that that the Exception occurs in the method init() (that does nothing) I created. I will try to put a new version of the xerces parser....

Older versions can give you the NoSuchMethodError.
