Workarounds:
- replace parser.jar with xerces.jar ( in tomcat_home/lib )
- replace parser.jar with crimson.jar ( part of jaxp1.1 or built from
apache xml-crimson )
( you'll have to also replace jaxp.jar with the new one )

The proposed Tomcat3.3 will fix this problem ( I think Nacho is working
on that ), in 3.2.1 it is a known problem.

Let me know if it still doesn't work.

( there are other problems with libraries in the original CLASSPATH - in
general it is better to keep all libs used by an application in its
WEB-INF/lib directory. The only problem remains the parser - it'll be
resolved soon )

I know :-), we're working on a fix.

Tomcat should work with any jaxp1.1 or jaxp1.0 parser.
