Joe, I am able to run the XQueryXPath samples just fine with the XMLBeans 2.3.0 release. I have saxon8.jar and saxon8-dom.jar in my classpath. I am using Saxon 8.8. The jars needed are documented in the XMLBeans FAQ: http://wiki.apache.org/xmlbeans/XmlBeansFaq#whatJars - Wing Yew

I am trying to run the example under {xbeans_dist}\samples\XQueryXPath. My classpath includes all of the distributed jars (including xbean_xpath.jar) and saxon8.jar. When trying to run the xpath from the example which is: declare namespace xq='http://xmlbeans.apache.org/samples/xquery/employees';$this/xq:employ ees/xq:employee/xq:phone/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'work'] Any time I run any xpath I get the exception below. Any help is greatly appreciated. I've also tried saxon9 with the same result. java.lang.RuntimeException: Trying XBeans path engine... Trying XQRL... Trying Saxon...
