If it's a JAXP problem, then there really is only one way I know of on how
to fix it. I've been trying to get an answer from Allaire about this for
ages (with no luck) but here is the way to sort it out:
1. Go to the JRunHome\lib\ext folder and remove the parser.jar and jaxp.jar
2. Copy another XML driver (I use the latest version of Xerces) into the
JRunHome\lib\ext folder
3. Restart your server.
I haven't tested this with any other XML Parser, but as long as it's JAXP2
compliant then it should alright (even the latest version of JAXP should
also fix this problem.
I have found, however, that JRun is much better at deploying the soap server
than Tomcat. When trying to develop my own classes to publish on Tomcat I
get too many errors compared to zero on JRun. (JRun actually worked first
time)
Good luck,
Anthony Ikeda
