Description

I use xalan-j_2_4_D1 for XML Processing in WebLogic 5.1.
I have a servlet which has a XML in a string format. I added following classes
in the classpath of Servlet in the order.
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\jaxp.jar;
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\parser.jar;
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\jaxp-api.jar
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\xmlParserAPIs.jar;
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\xercesImpl.jar;
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\xalan.jar
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\sax.jar;
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\dom.jar;
C:\weblogic\lib\xml\xsltc.jar;
I have also set following System properties.
System.setProperty
("javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory","org.apache.xalan.processor.Transforme
rFactoryImpl");
System.setProperty
("javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory","org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuil
derFactoryImpl");
System.setProperty
("javax.xml.parsers.SaxParserFactory","xorg.apache.xerces.jaxp.SaxParserFactoryI
mpl");
System.setProperty
("org.xml.sax.parser","org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");

This my code segment
StringReader str = new StringReader(XMLField);
InputSource input = new InputSource(str);
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
dbf.setNamespaceAware(false);
dbf.setValidating(false);
System.out.println(dbf.getClass().getName());
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
doc = db.parse(input);

I consistently get this error. I followed whatever is provided in the way of
documentation in Apache site. But this is the error I keep getting. I searched
whole of JAVA forums. No solution. Please help.
