Please help, do you recognize this error message?

Howdy all,

I'm a new user to this group, so please have
mercy on me.

I have just installed jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1 and
xerces-1_2_3 before installing Apache soap-2_0.

Tomcat is running o.k., and I can run the SOAP
Admin page.  I am trying to run a deploy script
for the stockquote sample. My deploy script is:

java org.apache.soap.server.ServiceManagerClient \
 http://localhost:8080/soap/servlet/rpcrouter \
 deploy DeploymentDescriptor.xml

I am wondering if soap-2_0 runs with xerces-1_2_3,
because when I run the deploy script I get the
following error message that comes from the XML
parser:


C:\SOAP\Apache\soap-2_0\samples\stockquote>java
 org.apache.soap.server.ServiceManagerClient
 http://localhost:8080/soap/servlet/rpcrouter deploy 
 DeploymentDescriptor.xml
