I've got xercesImpl.jar (2.9.1) in my WEB-INF/lib folder and as far as
I know that is the only SAXParser.

Not that I'm aware of but how would I know?   I have Struts 2 and
Hibernate and all there dependent jars but nothing else that looks
like it's an XML parser.

I not finding anything that looks like a problem off this link.

Again, everything works when I launch Tomcat fresh or restart it from
within Eclipse. I only get the error when Tomcat attempts to reload
the application.

Here seems to be the core issue:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException:
org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeAwareParserConfiguration cannot be
cast to org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration


Any ideas on how to figure out what is going on?

Hi,

that seems to me as if you have a problem with your sax-parser.
You should have a look if you have
1) the correct JDK (think 5.5.28 runs with 1.5, doesn't it ?)
2) the correct xerces - libraries in your classpath
3) not any other libraries in your classpath that provide a SaxParser.

Maybe this helps.

regards

  Volker

Problem reloading Struts 2 app in Tomcat and Eclipse

2010-02-24 Thread Greg Lindholm
I decided to finally ask about this problem I've been seeing for
several years.
During development I will run my Struts 2 (2.1.8) apps in Tomcat
(5.5.25) from Eclipse (3.5.1). I've included the current versions I'm
using but this problem goes way back over many different versions over
a couple years.

Here's the problem, if I make any changes while the app is running
like change a properties file of change a class, Eclipse will push the
changes to the deploy area and Tomcat will see the change and attempt
to reload the application (that's all good and expected). However the
reload always fails with the exception stack below and I have to
manually stop and restart Tomcat to get it to load successfully and
see the updates.  I never had this problem with Struts 1 or even JSF,
Tomcat was always able to reload the apps automatically.

Anyone have any idea why the reload is failing and how to fix?

Here is the stack dump:

Feb 24, 2010 10:15:44 AM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader

already.  Could not load

 The eventual following stack trace is caused by an error thrown for
debugging purposes as well as to attempt to terminate the thread which
caused the illegal access, and has no functional impact.
