JetSpeed Portal - after install error messages...
 

Hello All,

I have:

Linux SuSE 8.1
Tomcat 5x Servlet Engine

and on top of this I have installed:

JetSpeed Release 1.4 - Standard WAR

I deployed the jetspeed.war file in the webapps dir of Tomcat, restarted it then the portal main page came up.

My problem is:

On the screen I have an error message that reads:

problem in SAX transform: org.apache.xml.utils.WrappedRuntimeException: The output format must have a '{http://xml.apache.org/xalan}content-handler' property!

What I have done to try and solve it:

I read in the net that it could be related to the xalan.jar and that I should copy it to:

$CATALINA_HOME/common/endorsed

and then restarting Tomcat.

I've done that but the error message is still there.

Any thoughts? Comments? Clues?

One thing I didn't mention about the xalan.jar... According to the JetSpeed instructions you should grab the Xalan from the JetSpeed distribution; but the contents of the JetSpeed distro are:

-rw-r--r-- 1 joe users 4122 2003-10-29 19:11 INSTALL

-rw-r--r-- 1 joe users 10021302 2003-10-29 19:11 jetspeed.war

And that's it! No other files...no xalan.jar. So when I did copy the xalan.jar to the endorsed dir, it was the one from the jdk.

I never installed jetspeed, but maybe they mean the xalan.jar inside of the
jetspeed.war? (a WAR is a JAR is a ZIP), so try
'jar tvf jetspeed.war | grep xalan' and afterwards extract with jar xf ...
