OpenSAML user discussion

[Chad La Joie <>]

Hmm...  and there wasn't any more to that stack trace?  All I can tell 
you is that if you correctly endorsed any remotely recent version of 
Xerces you won't encounter that error.  As you're trying to use this 
with Axis be sure you're putting the endorsed libs in the right place. 
Tomcat, for example, requires them to be in a special place, different 
form that of the standard VM location.
