I'm not sure the below is a *small* example :-) (I have to keep
chopping the below to stop Sourceforge mailer's complaining). I would
cut it down and try to determine which particular expression is
causing you grief. I've just extracted your (count) XPath and ran a
quick test and I think that looks good.
Note that if you're using xmltask to simply populate a property, you
can simply specify a source file. You don't need a destination file
(XMLTask will write out the same doc as it loaded in, which is a bit
excessive)

my test1.xml

Is this syntax wrong ?
<copy path="count(/log4j:configuration/category/[...@name='Category3'])"
property="count"/>
as used above...
error is -
-------------------
repeattask:
*[xmltask] javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: A location step
was expected following the '/' or '//' token.*
[xmltask] at
com.sun.org.apache.xpath.internal.compiler.XPathParser.error(XPathParser.java:602)
[xmltask] at

Thanks.
