Hello,

I am working with Jetspeed 1.4 and Tomcat 5.0.25 on FreeBSD 5.2.1 with 
jdk 1.4.2.

I am getting the "Problem in SAX transform" errors that are a FAQ for 
Jetspeed 1.4. Apparently a .jar needs to be copied into the 
${CATALINA_HOME}/common/endorsed directory to override a poor or 
outdated XML parser included with jdk 1.4.2. I have done this, but I 
still receive the error.

Going back over the Jakarta Tomcat installation instructions, it looks 
like they recommend starting tomcat with jsvc. Their sample startup
command appears to specify the ${CATALINA_HOME}/common/endorsed dir as
a system property at that time - something that tomcat50ctl does not do.

I have tried to compile and use jsvc, but it does not seem to work. I 
have also tried to extend tomcat50ctl to specify the endorsed directory
during tomcat startup, but this does not appear to work either.

So, I am sure that there are people using Tomcat 5.0, Jetspeed 1.4 and 
jdk1.4.2 without experiencing XML SAX problems. If so, could you tell
me what you did to make it work?

-Will
