0ddly enough, this error is described in the docs under iPlanet install,
i.e. path-to-soap-2_2\docs\install\iPlanet.html:

(looks like that somebody clipped the output from a screen
that wasn't wrapping, hence "/servlet/rpcr" at the end of a line
instead of "servlet/rpcrouter"). Actually the error may occur
even if you have Xerces 1.4 or better (do _not_ use 1.3.1) at
the front of the classpath, but usually that has to do with
things in your lib/ext directory.
