I have xerces, xalan in my jdk1.3/jre/lib/ext directory and have no
conflicts. They may be loaded first before the other classes.
Cheers

Betreff: RE: conflict between jaxp.jar, parser.jar (tomcat lib) and
xalan. jar, xerces.jar?
Hi,
the problem with renaming might be if you encounter a machine set up to
return
the files in a directory not in alphabetical order (let's say newest file
first...)
I wonder whether the jar's will then be deployed correctly.
cheers

I'm not aware of any issues with your solution, but I never tried it either,
as the workaround with renaming the jars gave me the results I wanted.

You are right, I had forgotten that the scripts (even on NT) now create the
class path dynamically. I was thinking of situations where I'm debugging in
JBuilder and the classpath is static. I still suggest that it's as easy to
make Tomcat use xerces instead of jaxp and parser - are you aware of any
issues with this?

AFAK the Startscripts for tomcat construct their own classpath from the lib
directory during startup. This is done in alphabetical order, on most
platforms. So renaming parser.jar is a quick and dirty way to move it to the
end of the Tomcat classpath.
See http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/install.html#tomcat
<http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/install.html#tomcat> for details.

Are you suggesting that the jars are loaded in alphabetical order? I would
have said you should either move parser.jar to the end of the class path or
remove it entirely since xerces.jar contains the necessary jaxp interfaces.
Tomcat 3.2 does not access the parser directly but through jaxp so you can
safely remove parser.jar and jaxp.jar and use only xerces.jar.

The problem is with the order the jars are loaded. There is a version
confilict with some classes.
A common workaround is to rename parser.jar into zparser.jar, so it is
loaded after xalan.jar and xerces.jar.
This worked for me.

Hi --
I'm running a servlet application that uses the apache-XML xalan.jar and
xerces.jar files for handling XML/XSL stuff.
With tomcat 3.2.1, when I run my servlet, I get NoSuchMethodError on
getNamespaceURI(), called by
org.apache.xpath.DOM2Helper.getNamespaceOfNode().
I solved this problem by removing the jaxp.jar and parser.jar files that
come with the tomcat installation and sit under
the lib directory.
The servlet still runs without those jar files, so the xalan.jar and
xerces.jar must do the trick.
Is there some kind of version conflict that causes the NoSuchMethodError?
Thanks
Betty
