Has anyone had a WebService running on standalone OC4J 101300 / 101310

Question

I am trying to run the most basic of webservices on these containers - what was achieved within minutes on IBM WAS 6.0, JBoss 4.0 and WLS 9.1 is just not getting possible with this release of the container!
Initially thought it was a deployment / code issue - but have been consistently able to take the same WSDL and generate the WebService (and deploy) on other containers except OC4J. The same service runs successfully within JDev embedded OC4J.
Using JDeveloper, I was able to generate both top-down and bottom-up services. Neither got deployed - either through uploading the EAR file, ANT build file, JDeveloper deploy to connections etc...
Even tried changed entries in the server.xml and the default-web-site.xml file - but it is of no use.
No extra libraries were added - same results were obtained even with a fresh install of the container in this environment: WinXP Pro + JDK 1.5.2_09 + OC4J 101300 / 101310.
All these come back with the same error:

This doesn't help with your specific issue, but it's an example of a WS being generated in JDeveloper then deployed to a separate standalone OC4J 10.1.3.1.0 instance.
The WS was created from a simple Java class like yours, then deployed using JDeveloper remote connection to a separate OC4J instance.
---- Deployment started. ---- 17/11/2006 12:31:49

So it does work. What the specific problem is with your situation, one of our WS PMs most likely be able to help with.
The error you have:
2006-11-16 20:01:15.764 WARNING java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.dom.DeferredElementNSImpl
Is strange -- can you check your WAR file and see if there are other libraries in the WEB-INF/lib that may be being loaded?
Do you have xerces-impl.jar or anything like that in the JRE/lib directory of your JDK?
cheers
