Thanks David. I will look into them. So the xalan-dev list may be the more apt forum ??

This is probably not the best forum for HP-specific questions, but I'll give it a shot. Some things come to mind: 1. If you're running as root, SHLIB_PATH is ignored, for security reasons. 2. Use ldd to make sure all the necessary dependencies are there. 3. Use chatr to make sure SHLIB_PATH is enabled. Dave
