[opencms-dev] Can't edit page even after replacing the XML/Xerces parser

[Leif]

So much for making precations.

It turned out to be a bad idea to rename the original xercesImpl.jar for backup and leave it in the endorsed folder.
I found it was still being used...

If I delete this file and add the xerces1.4.4.jar without renaming it works fine!

  I just installed OpenCMS 5.0.1, but when I try to edit any html file within OpenCMS, I get a http 500 error with the
  following message:

  java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.xerces.dom.CoreDocumentImpl.getEncoding()Ljava/lang/String;
   at com.opencms.template.CmsXmlXercesParser.getOriginalEncoding(CmsXmlXercesParser.java:193)
   at com.opencms.template.CmsXmlXercesParser.getXmlText(CmsXmlXercesParser.java:131)

  I have read somewhere that "This a a conflict of XML/Xerces jar versions.
  Tomcat comes with a version that is not compatible with OpenCms at this time.
  Solution: Look for a xercesImpl.jar somehere in the default Tomcat lib folders.
  Replace this with the xerxec1.4.4.jar that ships with OpenCms."

  I've copied my "xerxec1.4.4.jar" into c:\tomcat\common\endorsed and renamed it "xercesImpl.jar".
  (The original "xercesImpl.jar" was renamed "xercesImpl.jar.org"). I have tried restarting Tomcat and the computer
  several times but it still doesn't work..... Any ideas?

  My Tomcat version is 4.1.29
