I've upgraded my JRE (1.4.1_03) to use Xerces 2.4.0 i.e. by adding the necessary jar files to $JAVA_HOME\jre\lib\endorsed I've also replaced all older versions of Xerces.jar.
Now when i start Jboss (3.0.4) i get a FileNotFoundException for web.xml if i remove the $JAVA_HOME\jre\lib\endorsed and its contents Jboss starts up ok.
For development purposed i need to use Xerces2.4.0 and i don't to be removing and adding the
xerces jar files from $JAVA_HOME\jre\lib\endorsed.
Any ideas?
