javax.activation.UnsupportedDataTypeException: no object DCH for MIME type application/XML

[florent....@gmail.com]

Hello everybody,

We have a Tomcat instance running two webapps: Hermes and our
application. Our application uses JAXWS to exposes and consumes SOAP
WebServices to and from other applications (Hermes WebServices are not
consume with JAXWS, they are consume with the javax.xml.soap.*
classes).

When Hermes is deployed alone, it runs fine. When we deploy the other
application at the same time, we have a problem when we try to send/
receive AS2 message with a content-type of application/XML.
We get the following error in as2.log:

2011-12-12 12:48:29 [http-8080-2 ] <INFO > <Outbound payload received
- From: FPA, To: CONNECTIV-IT, Type: application/xml>

Searching on Google and in JAXWS and Hermes source code, it appears
that both of them uses Java activation MailcapCommandMap to register
data content handlers. I think there's a problem with that but I don't
exactly understand what and why. Do you have any idea?

We're using JAXWS Reference Implementation 2.2.3. The JAXWS jars are
located in the other webapp WEB-INF/lib folder.

Thanks for your help
