I'd like to "bump" this question to the front as it's still open and as a reference for others. In the meantime I retried Jetty/CXF and simply removed the "<!DOCTYPE>" declaration. This change fixed the problem with this particular assembly and the catalog is now read and correctly applied while resolving the URL.
However, the exception persists with Tomcat/Axis even with this modification. I filed bug reports for these issues: Jetty/CXF: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4500 Tomcat/Axis: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4501 Regards, Janko Janko Heilgeist wrote: > Hi Jarek, > > I updated my sources from the SVN repository and recompiled both > assemblies to rule out any obsolete code issues.
