Xerces problem with AXIS 1.2 RC2

[babloosony <ba...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I am using below environment:

Apache AXIS 1.2 RC2
IBM WSAD 5.1.2
WebSphere 5.0 Application Server (WAS)

Now the axis web application that we have inside AXIS 1.2 RC2
distribution downloaded does not have xerces jars inside WEB-INF\lib
directory.

Now from where and what version of XERCES jars (can anyone name all
these jars) should I download and keep inside WEB-INF\lib so that they
work in sync with xerces used interally axis jars and do not conflict
with IBM' WSAD or WAS when may internally used its only version of
XERCES.

Please suggest ...

- Kumar.

Hi Kumar,

I would include my own xerces.jar in the WEB-INF/lib file as well
as set the CLASSLOADER properties (somewhere under WEB MODULES) inside 
WebSphere to be PARENT LAST.  The default is PARENT FIRST which puts all 
the libraries from WAS on the path first.  By reversing it you force 
your WAR file and its contents to be on the list first and getting what 
you want.

Best Wishes,
Dave
