Erin,

Thanks for the response.

I just tried doing it via the command line and it
worked fine.

So, it appears that the problem is somewhere with the
Tomcat/Cocoon setup.  I've tried running it with the
xalan library in the Tomcat endorsed directory and
that didn't help.  As it stands, the libraries are in
the WEB-INF directory for the application.  Below is
the relevant portion of the stack trace (i've ommited
the lines above which are cocoon-related:
