We are using Tomcat 4.0.6 and JDK 1.4.0 with just use the vanilla install of tomcat, and we don't put the xerces.jar in the WEB-INF/lib either, and all this works fine. We use JDOM in the web app, its probably because the Crimson XML parser is include in 1.4.0, and it uses that?
The vanilla install of TC 4.0.6 also puts xerces in common\lib, so it's maybe using that. PS we are using the FULL version of Tomcat not the 'Lite' version for JDK 1.4.0.

Thanks for that. If it is a Tomcat bug that has been addressed, I'll put the issue on the back burner for a while. Can you remember if you noticed the xerces issue I mentioned?
