i checked the xercesImpl.jar (from xerces-2.0.2)and it didn't have org/w3c/dom/ranges/DocumentRange.class so i downloaded the source of xerces-1.4.4. after building the binary dist i set tomcat's build.properties to xerces.jar and bang! it worked.
thanks Ralph for you help -----Original Message----- From: Ralph Einfeldt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 12, 2002 8:04 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: AW: 500 error on all JSP pages The xerces that is delivered with tomcat should be okay (at least it is for 4.0.3). To view the content of a jar use either $JAVA_HOME/bin/jar tvf <jarfile> or use an ordinary zip tool. Are you shure that that you don't have an jar file on your system that contains the w3c classes that might be found before xerces ? There might be other jar files that contain this classes. Have look espcially at jar files in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext.
