Web Service Client works from IDE, not standalone

Question

I'm using the Netbeans 5.5 IDE & JAX-WS 2.0 & jdk1.6.
I use an Applet to call a webservice on an embedded web-server which has gSoap generated WebServices.
The code works fine if I run it from the IDE. However, the following error occurs if I run it from the webserver:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.resolver.CatalogManager
     at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.util.xml.XmlUtil.createDefaultCatalogResolver(Unknown Source)

basic: Exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.resolver.CatalogManager
I believe this class is being found since I got a different error when I had the classname wrong.
The console has reported:
network: Connecting http://192.168.0.2/META-INF/services/javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider with proxy=DIRECT
to which I serve up a file with the first line as:
NetburnerWebfunctions.WebfunctionsPortType
This class (autogenerated by Netbeans webservice import) contains:
@WebService(name = "WebfunctionsPortType", targetNamespace = "http://www.red-earth.co.uk/Webfunctions")
public interface WebfunctionsPortType {
    @WebMethod(action = "http://www.red-earth.co.uk/Webfunctions/getDIPs")
    @WebResult(name = "result", targetNamespace = "http://www.red-earth.co.uk/Webfunctions")
    @RequestWrapper(localName = "getDIPs", targetNamespace = "http://www.red-earth.co.uk/Webfunctions", className = "NetburnerWebfunctions.GetDIPs")
    @ResponseWrapper(localName = "getDIPsResponse", targetNamespace = "http://www.red-earth.co.uk/Webfunctions", className = "NetburnerWebfunctions.GetDIPsResponse")
    public int getDIPs();
}In the applet the webfunction is called using the following code:
NetburnerWebfunctions.Webfunctions service =
  new NetburnerWebfunctions.Webfunctions(new java.net.URL("http://192.168.0.2/webfunctions.wsdl.xml"),
  new javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://www.red-earth.co.uk/Webfunctions", "Webfunctions"));
NetburnerWebfunctions.WebfunctionsPortType port = service.getWebfunctions();
result = port.getDIPs();The Applet is placed on the html page thus:
<APPLET  code="IO.class" Archive="Applet.jar" width=350 height=200></APPLET>Any Ideas why this error occurs - have I got the provider wrong?
