Hi there!
I was doing some textbook examples and realised that when I put the XercesImpl.jar into the lib folder of Tomcat 6, loading http://localhost:8080/ (and any page within) causes issues. Things loaded on server (in this order): 1. Java JDK-6 Update 16 (Includes JRE6) 2. Tomcat 6.0.20 3. mySQL 5.1.37 4. mysql-connector-java-5.1.8 5. Jakarta Taglibs-standard-1.1.2 6. Xalan-j (which includes the XercesImpl.jar) and 3 other Jars (Xalan.jar, xml-apis.jar and serializer.jar) The latter add to the system all other jars will happily reside in the lib folder and the page will load. As soon as XercesImpl.jar is placed in there (of course, restarting Tomcat) results in not being able to load even the home page in the server (and any other pages). I use Windows XPP - cleanly installed for the purpose for installing these on the server. Can someone advise where I might have gone wrong - and where I can download a log of the information required for diagnosis? Yours Sincerely, Dave
