Hallo,

hab hier einen echt seltsamen Bug:
Auf meiner Kiste (NT SP6a JDK 1.3.1_02 oder _01) bricht der STart von 
Netbeans 3.3 mit folgender Meldung ab:

javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: 
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
org.netbeans.core.xml.NbSAXParserFactoryImpl

Die Klasse ist aber da (in core.jar) die gleiche Installation (einfach 
Verzeichnis freigegeben) startet auch auf einem anderen Rechner 
kommentarlos.

ich hab auch keinen anderen SAX in meinem Classpath..

ratlos grüssend,
Konrad

Post a follow-up to this message
-------------------------------------------------
(but it was working well for me at first install of nb 3.3 and i used nb 3.3 to
code and develop with tomcat 3.2.4)

Is this coming from an automated update ?

Solution use JDK1.4, it works for Forte !
(grr. iplanet/https-admserv <== build the dir to use it)

Now, NetBeans 3.3 with JDK1.4
YES, use JDK1.4 to solve it !
Comment 2 Richard Gregor 2002-06-19 21:36:17 UTC 
It looks it does nothing to do with installer. So I'm reasigning.
Comment 3 _ ttran 2002-06-20 08:24:09 UTC 
you have a SAX library in <jdk>/jre/lib/ext which conflicts with the
SAX library we bundle with the IDE.  Remove the jar from
<jdk>/jre/lib/ext and all should be fine.

And please never never try to manually add jar files into <ide>/lib
and its subdirs.  You'd only make things worse.
