[news.eclipse.webtools] Re: Where is org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFac

Hi Chris,

Unless you're trying to run a Web Tools ant task I don't think this is WTP 
related. However, the parser in question is from the Apache Xerces [1] 
project. In this context Xerces is a Java based XML parser. You're likely 
getting this error because Xerces is not included in your JRE. (I'm not 
familiar with the Max JRE but this used to happen with older Sun JREs.)

Xerces is available as a bundle from the Orbit project [2] and is 
available in Eclipse (if installed) in the bundle org.apache.xerces. Add 
this bundle or the Xerces jar to your path and you should be good to go.
