<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi,</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Well, as recommended, I installed an older version of Tomcat (4.1.29). Unfortunately, it yields similar errors (see below). I'm just trying going through the "test demo" portion of the opencms user's manual. Is this not how folks get up to speed on this product? It's not a classpath issue as I've set it to "." before starting Tomcat; it is using the xerces code that comes bundled with it. As mentioned farther down, this is a standared W2K installation with JDK 1.4.2-02. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks for any help,</font>

different installation/test run phases I get different results. Here's<br>
