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)
I assume Axis is following the system of class loader of tomcat . you should read this: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/class-loader-howto.html
and especially the class loader "common" and the note at the end of the page about jdk 1.4.
As Srinath Perera notice, you should have a try in putting gnujax classes in axis/WEB-INF/lib
in order to override the common setting.

Actually, I don't know which JAXP implementation is used by AXIS. There is no JAXP implementation jar in ../tomcat/webapp/axis/WEB-INF/lib/ (or am I wrong?). So I supposed AXIS would use Tomcat's Xerces. But I just realized that I'm running jdk 1.4.2 so it might use the jdk's crimson parser...!?
To clarify my original problem: Is it possible to deploy a web service that uses a different JAXP parser (e.g. the Gnu JAXP parser: http://www.gnu.org/software/classpathx/jaxp/) than the AXIS runtime? And if so how do I avoid the library conflict?
Thanks again. Olaf
