I'm not sure if this fits your environment, but you can do the following, if you're using Eclipse. Go into server configurations, select Paths and add the xerces jar that you want to use in the "prepend to classpath" box.

If the WAR is built, deployed and then run from the command line, then there are no problems, this is only occurring in the development setup where it seems to be picking up an old version of xerces. Is there any simple way to avoid this issue via configuration (other than trying to correct the classpath used by the plugin)? Thanks Graham
