Hot deploy issues with eclispe and tomcat

[David Rocks]

Hi,

Hopefully you can help on this one, I am getting problems with eclipse ( 3.4 ) running tomcat ( 6.0 ) running a struts 2 app.

Issue happens with a code change and the local server drops. First exception is

Exception in thread "Timer-0" java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.mchange.v2.log.log4j.Log4jMLog$Log4jMLogger.isLoggable(Log4jMLog.java:255)
at com.mchange.v2.resourcepool.BasicResourcePool$CullTask.run(BasicResourcePool.java:1934)

then..

Caught exception while loading file struts-default.xml - [unknown location]
at com.opensymphony.xwork2.config.providers.XmlConfigurationProvider.loadConfigurationFiles(XmlConfigurationProvider.java:839)
at com.opensymphony.xwork2.config.providers.XmlConfigurationProvider.loadDocuments(XmlConfigurationProvider.java:131)

then..

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.xerces.parsers.XML11Configuration cannot be cast to org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration
at org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser.<init>(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser.<init>(Unknown Source)

Of course I can restart the app but it eats into my dev time.

If anyone knows a solution I would be much obliged.

Thanks

I found it, removed a xerces lib from the classpath.
