Can you send me the error message you are getting when you do a eclipse:eclipse, or a clean install?

Hm, not the best option either, I guess. Well now I got my (new) company to accept that this problem is a problem, even though it only happens to me (so far), and we try to fix the problem itself, instead of trying to change how maven sets up the build path for me. As I see it now, the problem is Java 6 with cocoon 2.1.11. Cocoon 2.1.11 uses excalibur-xmlutil 2.1 which uses jtidy which implemts org.w3c classes that are implemented by the JDK 6 itself. I found a newer version of jtidy in a hibernate project, this one does not reimplement the org.w3c classes, however, then there is another third party jar in excalibur-xmutil 2.1, xml-apis 2.0.2 that also reimplements org.w3c classes and I got the same conflict. Looking on the maven repo, there is: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/xml-apis/xml-apis/ where 2.0.2 is the newest version, and there is http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/xml-apis/xml-apis-ext/1.3.04/ which seems to be newer - I assume, yet don't know, that this might be a newer version of xml-apis, that was deployed after Java 6 was out, so it might be just the same but without the java 6 org.w3c classes? Is that so? Did anyone of you ever have this or a similar problem? What's the best way to solve it? Thanks in advance, Peter
