the dreaded org.xml.sax.SAXParseException error...arrgghh!!!
This one has been killing my day.
I've checked the archives and other forums for some insight but no luck.
>From what I know and can see below, my web.xml file follows the required
DTD structure. Yet I continue to get the dreaded
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException error...as below.
I dont know what I'm missing. Right now my eyes are so tired, it could be
staring me in the face. Hopefully, some fresh eyes will help.
Many thanks

Hiya....
Thanks for your help G.Wade and everyone. Finally got the bug. Basically
trawled through all the web.xml files that I felt were the likely suspects
(i.e. all those I touched).Problem was that some of my tags weren't in the correct order as defined
by the Sun DTD for web.xmlMy fault really as I had been using the structure given in a book which
used a different version of tomcat. D'oh!!
Anyway, thanks again.

I would suggest looking at all of the web.xml files under the
CATALINA_HOME directory. (In Windows, you can use "dir /s web.xml".)
You'll pretty much want to look at line 18 of all of them to find the
one with the problem, I think. I don't know if anyone knows of a way to
identify which web.xml file got stomped.
Or...You could do a clean install of Tomcat and then add in your
webapps and any changes you've made to the main files.
Good luck,

Thanks for this, the thought did cross my mind. I think that tomcat and I
are definitely talking about different web.xml files because when I remove
nearly all the tags, it still pops up with an error at line 18 col 12.
I've deleted the old web xml, added a new one, and still no luck.
Any ideas on where I can go from here??

Posted by "G. Wade Johnson" <wa...@abbnm.com>.
In other XML applications when I've had a validation error on code that
I could see was obviously right, it turned out that I was looking at a
different file than the program was.
So, at the risk of sounding obnoxious are you sure you're looking at
the right file?
The other thing that has bitten me is an invalid character in my
content.
Just a thought,

Re: the dreaded org.xml.sax.SAXParseException error...arrgghh!!!
Posted by Bill Barker <wb...@wilshire.com>.
It should be easy enough. The error is saying that somewhere around line 18
you have something other than:
<servlet>
<!-- possible servlet-icon -->
<servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
<!-- possible servlet-description -->
<servlet-class>com.myfirm.mypackage.MyServlet</servlet-class>
<!-- as many init-params as you need -->
<!-- possible load-on-startup -->
<!-- possible run-as (mostly for J2EE-embeddings) -->
<!-- possible security-role-ref -->
</servlet>
If this doesn't help, you could always try and post your "web.xml" file.
