Problem parsing JSTL c.tld with jboss-3.0.3/4_tomcat-4.1.12
Hi,
I'm getting a deployment exception with my WAR (embedded in an EAR) that uses the Jakarta JSTL standard-1.0.2 core taglib. The error happens with both jboss-3.0.3_tomcat-4.1.12 and jboss-3.0.4_tomcat-4.1.12 and appears to be intermittent, but not dependent on things like wiping the working directories, hot-redeploying or restarting JBoss.
The WAR deploys okay with Tomcat 4.1.12 standalone.
The exceptions are shown below. Needless to say, the string "--" doesn't occur anywhere in any of the deployment xml documents, including c.tld.
I'm deploying the following jars in WEB-INF/lib:
xercesImpl.jar, xmlParserAPIs.jar (2.2.0)
log4j-1.2.7.jar
jstl.jar, standard.jar, jaxen-full.jar, saxpath.jar (1.0.2)
Running JDK 1.4.1_01 on Windows XP SP1.
Any pointers would be appreciated
