Richard, when you generated Java sources from your XML schema, the code generator generated two sets of classes:
a) your domain classes (as outlined below) b) descriptor classes. Did you package the latter ones as well with your application ? It looks to me like this might not be the case. Regards Werner PS Why not try to marshal useful XML from a sample object instance ? Usually this indicates if something is wrong with e.g. configuration, missing descriptor classes, ....
