Hi Olaf I belive the Axis does not work on **/tomcat/common/endorsed/xercesImpl.jar!** PLS correct me if I am wrong.
These staff are for (common) for tomcat to work, axis is a application on TomCat(Remember). What matter is what in WEB-INF. (WEB-INF/lib) axis need XML parser (is it SAX/DOM complient or JAXP). xerces not a must. I have tried jdk1.4 javax.xml, it works fine.
