Gotcha. I'll try and remove xerces for now. Also, there is a cxf error in that stacktrace I posted. I definitely don't get that when I deploy to tomcat standalone. It made me think it was also a classloader issue. Any ideas with that error? What I haven't tried yet is removing xerces and redploying. Maybe that issue would go away? Also, you mention proper configuration -- does my jboss-classloading.xml look ok? Anything that needs to be added. Also, I saw some people asking on the forum for a good reference to that file and what can go in it but no one seems to have provided anything yet. Do you know if anything exists?
