Tom,
Thanks again. I have followed the instuctions and my tomcat.bat has the flwg
lines:
set CP=c:\xerces\xerces.jar;%CLASSPATH%;%CP%
set CP=%CP%;c:\soap\samples;
I have put the above lines in 3 different places ( depending on the path the
bat files chooses). But I do not know why xerces.jar is still behind in the
classpath.
Thanks
Sanjay

next you look at them, in the order that they're put in, and you see that
C:\tomcat\lib\parser.jar comes in on the second line, and xerces is down a
line later. So the classpath as constructed by tomcat is a badbadbadwicked
nasty rotten classpath; probably you didn't yet change tomcat.bat the way
the
SOAP docs say to, in your downloaded soap-2_2\docs\install\tomcat.html :

and it tells you what lines to look for in the script and how to change
them. The point is that the classpath you constructed is not the classpath
used by Tomcat; a servlet-runner has to do some classpath-munging, and
each of them (Tomcat, websphere, JRun, etc etc) messes up the classpath
in its own individual way... hope this helps.
