Before we even begin -- why is axis.jar in shared/lib?  Why not the
webapp's WEB-INF/lib?

A NoClassDefFound error means a class was present at compile time, but
isn't available at runtime; in turn, this usually boils down to a
classloader/visibility issue (if said JAR is somewhere in the
classpath).


: newDocument() I get a Tomcat error page (see text below) with a partial 
: stack trace indicating a missing class definition for 
: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException.

Which JAR holds this class def?  -or are there multiple JARs that do
this?  Do they  exist in multiple classloaders?
