NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/dom/ElementTraversal

[Paul Hethmon]

You need to properly endorse xalan and xerces for use with your container (Jetty). Check the wiki for the information on how to do this and what it means.

Hello!
I tried to install and run the Shibboleth IdP under Jetty 7, but I got this error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/dom/ElementTraversal

See the complete error here: http://pastebin.com/idFBgnjd

I opened a ticket in my web host to ask for help about this problem, and they answered as follows:

You need to make sure that the xml-apis-2.10.0.jar file is properly included on your CLASSPATH. I tried to get this working for you, but it looks like there is some code inside the program that is overriding the environment's CLASSPATH settings. I suggest that you start simple -- just a test Java program that tries to import the ElementTraversal class, and build up from there until you understand the obstacle that is preventing your app from starting.

but unfortunately i don't know to programming in java. So how can I solve this problem?
Thank you very much for any help! :)

Best regards!
