I had the same problem until I started from "scratch" with a clean tomcat +
jaxp configuration.
I think there was an XML parsing problem using an appropriate version of
jaxp.
let's try this:
1) unpack tomcat4.0b07 into a $TOMCAT_HOME
2) copy $TOMCAT_HOME/jasper/jaxp.jar and $TOMCAT_HOME/jasper/crimson.jar
into $TOMCAT_HOME/lib
3) copy the tiles-webapps into $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps
4) make sure your CLASSPATH is minimal (contains just .; (Win) or .: (Unix)
is the best)
4) start tomcat and go to http://localhost:8080/tiles-doc
if it works, try your custom application.
otherwise let me(us) know.
cheers,
nicolas b.
