NoSuchMethodError !!

[bh...@bellsouth.net]

Hello Group,

    I am using axis as web service client with the following ...

          Tomcat : 3.3.1a
          JDK    : 1.3

    I am able to call web service properly and also getting the response from the service. I can see the response xml in axis.log file since I have turned debug on for axis client. The exceptio is raised beacause it probably cannot find xerces.jar file in the classpath. I have already put xerces.jar in the class path. Is there a way to verify client side setup like  axis server side setup or even better, Is there a way find our whether the exception is raised beacuse it cannot fined xerces.jar in the classpath or Is there an older version somewhere in front of the classpath ???
