Struts 1.0.2 + Xerces 2.2.0

[Jeanfrancois Arcand]

HI,

we (the Tomcat dev team) are experiencing some problem with Struts 1.0.2 and Xerces 2.2.0 in Tomcat. When starting Tomcat, a wrong exception is thrown (see below). Is somedoby aware of a similar problem? I'm trying to produce a smaller test case for the Xerces-J team (they will not fix the bug until I produce a smaller test case :-( ). I have make some tests and the problem doesn't seems to come from the Digester, but directly from Xerces.

Any help will be appreciated.
