JBossWS1.0.4 doesn't work with JBossAS4.0.4GA

[zhi_hui]

I tried to follow JBossWS1.0.4 installation intructions to install JBossWS1.0.4 on top of JBossAS4.0.4GA.
1. Copy lib/jbossws-client.jar to $JBOSS_HOME/client/
2. extracted jbossws.sar to jbossws.sar directory under $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/
3. download jboss-xml-binding.jar from http://repository.jboss.com/jboss/jbossxb/1.0.0.CR7/lib
4. replace the jboss-xml-binding.jar file in $JBOSS_HOME/client and $JBOSS_HOME/lib with the downloaded one.

After that, I tried to start JBoss, but I saw a lot of exceptions, and http://localhost:8080/jbossws could not be reached. Am I missing anything in the steps? any comments are appreciated.

Part of the exception messages are

Works for me

Does not work with JBoss 4.0.4 and 4.0.5. See the same exception:

org.jboss.xb.binding.JBossXBRuntimeException: Failed to create a new SAX parser

[rajeshramchander]

Sorry! False alarm. We had older versions of Xerces JARs in the classpath that were preventing the ones from jboss/lib/endorsed from getting loaded.

[zhi_hui]

Yes, the problem is the old version xcerse jar file. and it works for me now. Thank you all.

[estrellarichardson]

I am getting the same error. Which version of xerces should I be using?

[pshankar]

JBoss server directory has an endorsed dir that has the right Xercs

[pshankar]

Look for xerces in JBoss\lib\endorsed

[estrellarichardson]

Thank you.
