RE: getting exception on XMLEventFactory.newFatory on using poi 3.11 API.

["Banerjee, Tapas" <Ta...@fmr.com.INVALID>]

Dominik,
You are right. We just upgraded WebSphere JDK to 1.7 & tried, now the Exception is gone  and export is working fine with 3.11.

Now we will test if large sheet export using SXSSF, that we had issue in 3.10 is working fine

Thanks,

Hi,

I think in this case the problem is IBM JDK 6, it seems it does not
provide some XML functionality that it should have according to the
Java Spec, IBM JDK 7 seems to work. See
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/poi-user/201501.mbox/%3CCABdJj54D5ioQtu=Agj-aeoR7PgLfcM53+czwfcc-=6aeSEtp=w@mail.gmail.com%3E
for a related discussion.

As we now saw similar errors multiple times and there are a number of
different things that can cause this, I have now created a FAQ entry
at http://poi.apache.org/faq.html#faq-N1017E (should appear during the
next website publish) which tries to describe these different reasons
and provides hints how to resolve them. Please update/enhance the FAQ
if necessary.

Thanks... Dominik.

As Java 6+ has STAX APIs bundled, putting them into the classpath or the ext/ directory of your JVM breaks things. Make sure that you clean your classpath up! If you use Maven, exclude the useless dependencies on xml-apis.jar or stax-apis.jar with an exclude. Also make sure you use latest versions of XML parsers.
