RE: Glassfish 3.0.1 on the AS/400. Console App not running

The link refers to the Ant folks bringing in a different version of Xalan,
and putting it in the endorsed library overriding the JVM implementation
except for those classes not being present in the endorsed library. If any
of those are called, then there is a mismatch.

I do not recognize the error they report, but I do not believe we used
1.6.0_17. We've however used ant extensively and I've _never_ seen anything
like this.

Would you consider postponing this until we've seen the issue actually
happen on the IBM JVM on the i?

Documented bug in the xalan version included in Java 6
(The post below is close what the issue is - sounds like there were
several issues with the xalan included in Java 6)

http://ant.1045680.n5.nabble.com/Ant-1-7-1-Xalan-and-Java-1-6-0-17-td1356297
.html

I don't know if IBM carried this Xalan bug into the IBM Java 6 JVM or
not, but I do know that the error I was getting:

javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactoryConfigurationError: Provider
com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl not
found

*Seemed* to be related to the bug ( I spent hours searching and frankly
I have lost track of all the reference now).

If you have a solution to the TransformerFactoryImpl not found error
that is better than using the latest Xalan implementation (and making
the classloader load it) then I'd be happy to try it.

The TransformerFactoryImpl not found error is what is causing the
console not to come up.

I still don't understand why it is necessary to switch XSLT engine with
current JVM's?

Could you elaborate?

I think Thorbjørn may have something in noting that it may be an issue
with OSGI bundling and configuration. I haven't had a chance to
explore that yet but if I get a chance, I will.
