exception on starting tomcat...

[jon * <jo...@latchkey.com>]

Anyone know why I'm getting this exception? I'm using the latest Tomcat
stuff from CVS...exactly which XML related packages do I need in my
classpath? all this JAXP stuff has me pretty confused now...

I have tried the xml.jar that comes with Ant as well as the
Xerces-1.0.3.jar...nothing seems to work...

Using classpath: 
..\classes;..\lib\webserver.jar;..\lib\jasper.jar;..\lib\servle
t.jar;..\lib\xml.jar;c:\jdk1.2\lib\tools.jar;c:\classes\jaxp-1.0.1\jaxp.jar;
C:\jdk1.2\lib\tools.jar

Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError:

And remove "../lib/xml.jar".  It is not JAXP-compatible.

Get JAXP 1.0.1, unzip, and add parser.jar and jaxp.jar to your classpath.
