IllegalStateException while parsing xml in WAS6

[H. J. Yoshi]

Hi,

I have deplyed an application WAS6 server.I get the java.lang.IllegalStateException in the logs when I launch the installed application.

I searched a little on it and learnt that this is a known problem with WAS.
And that the possible solution of the problem is using xerces.jar to parse the xml instead of the default crimson.jar used by WAS.
So I added xerces.jar in the WEB-INF/lib folder of the application, rebuilt the EAR and deployed the resulting EAR in WAS.

But I still get the same error in logs.

Please let me know if I have misunderstood something or doing something incorrect.

Thanks in advance,
Himadri

PS: the error stack in logs is follows-
