Re: Solr+XSLT output problem; trying to use "wt=xslt" fails with a NoClassDefFoundError

This is pretty puzzling ... my best guess is that either:
  1) something about your tomcat setup is causing the javax.xml.* classes 
     to not be available at runtime.
  2) the TransformerFactory that your JVM wants to use (as specified by 
     the "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory" system property) can't 
     be loaded ... i think that would also trigger a NoClassDefFoundError 
     but i'm not positive.

...with your current tomcat setup, can you write a simple little JSP that 
uses TransformerFactory to do an XSLT transform?  (if not: then you have a 
simplified, non-solr, test case to troubleshoot -- maybe with help from a 
Tomcat expert)
