Hi anubha,
I've got the same problem (JBoss3.2.1 , Xerces1_4_2)
did u managed to solve your problem ?

I have also ran into this problem, and I would like to share the steps to solve the issue.

Description of my specific problem:

I needed to deploy Selectica Configurator web application on JBoss 3.2.1. Selectica has a servlet that talks to its engine (runs in outside java process). The servlet uses an older version of Xerces than what JBoss has in its lib folder. So like you guys, I was getting the "verify error" because of version conflict.


I did some searching and found that the versions were conflicting due to the default class loading mechanism in JBoss (UnifiedLoaderRepository). By default, classes are loaded only once and are available to all deployed applications. In this case, that is a bad thing since classes from the new version of Xerces was loaded before some of the old Xerces classes where loaded.

Okay that's the problem... now the solution

Solution:

After reading about the Class Loading Architecture of JBoss 3.2 and doing some searches on this forum I found ways to turn on "classpath isolation" which would keep JBoss's Xerces version from conflicting with my web application's Xerces.

I accomplished this by creating an EAR file with my web application in it. In the META-INF folder I placed a text file called "jboss-app.xml". It looks like this:

<jboss-app>
<loader-repository loaderRepositoryClass="org.jboss.mx.loading.HeirarchicalLoaderRepository3">
testing.com:loader=selectica.ear
<loader-repository-config configParserClass="org.jboss.mx.loading.HeirarchicalLoaderRepository3ConfigParser">
java2ParentDelegaton=false
</loader-repository-config>
</loader-repository>
</jboss-app>

This configuration tells JBoss to create a separate repository for the application's classes and it also tells it to not look at the parent classloader when deciding to load a resource or retrieve an already loaded resource (this was the key setting).

I then deployed the EAR file and everything worked fine.

I know the solution has been documented before, but just in case someone is reading this thread...
I hope this helps!
