And I think that is the most likely problem. I recall that the factory
loading code for SchemaFactory (and XPathFactory too) in Java 5 was at one
time and possibly still is busted [1]. You end up getting the JDK
SchemaFactory instead of the one from Xerces. The code donated to Apache
had this bug and we fixed it before it (i.e. the JAXP 1.3 version of
xml-apis.jar) was released with Xerces-J 2.7.0 (the first Xerces release to
support SchemaFactory). I'd suggest you include the Apache xml-apis.jar in
the JDK endorsed directory so that the correct SchemaFactory implementation
gets loaded.
