Thanks for your response. I have tried what you indicated and continue to
have the same problem.
Additionally, I attempted to place all of the jar files from
java_xml_pack-spring02-dev\jaxp-1.2-ea2 (dom, jaxp-api, sax, xalan,
xercesimpl, and xsltc) in my WEB-INF/lib directory and rebuilt (removing the
XERCESJAR entry for this test). This causes the same failure with a
slightly different error stack:

In addition to ideas for what a solution to this problem, I also am open for
direction on how I can go about debugging this problem.
Thanks again for any input.

Hi, you must assign the variable XERCESJAR to your project (right click,
properties, java build path, add variable), and check the order must be
before the source folder of your project.
Enrique.

I noticed other people have posted messages for similar problems and they
were usually related to problems with the XML parser. By default, WSAD
4.0
is using Xerces 3.2.1. I have also attempted to add crimson.jar and
xalan.jar from Suns fall xml release to WEB-INF/lib. This resulted in a
similar error.
I have been using the environment described above (WSAD 4.0, Xerces 3.2.1)
successfully to develop software using Struts 1.02.
If there is any additional information I can provide, please let me know.
Thanks in advance for any help on this problem
