    </build>
</project>

I tried multiple solutions,but could not resolve it.

1st method) In jboss-5.1.0.GA\lib\endorsed folder I have this jar(xercesImpl). so I removed that jar, and run the project.

Now I get this exception

xception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Unexpected exception parsing XML document from class path resource [spring-batch-context.xml]; nested exception is javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: Provider for javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory cannot be found

2nd) method I tried commented the bellow dependency from pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>jaxen</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxen</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.1</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId>
            <groupId>xerces</groupId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
            <groupId>xml-apis</groupId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>xmlParserAPIs</artifactId>
            <groupId>xerces</groupId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency> 

But I get the same exception

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Unexpected exception parsing XML document from class path resource [spring-batch-context.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl cannot be cast to javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory at org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmlBeanDefinitionReader.doLoadBeanDefinitions(XmlBeanDefinitionReader.java:413)

3rd) Method I saw some solution regarding the same problem and the solution says to add the bellow dependency

<dependency>
  <groupId>xerces</groupId>
  <artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId>
  <version>2.11.0</version>
</dependency>

After adding the above dependency in my pom.xml I get this exception:

org.jboss.xb.binding.JBossXBRuntimeException: Failed to create a new SAX parser at org.jboss.xb.binding.UnmarshallerFactory$UnmarshallerFactoryImpl.newUnmarshaller(UnmarshallerFactory.java:100) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.deployers.JBossContextConfig.processContextConfig(JBossContextConfig.java:549) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.deployers.JBossContextConfig.init(JBossContextConfig.java:536) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.lifecycleEvent(ContextConfig.java:279) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.java:117) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.init(StandardContext.java:5436) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:4148)

4th) method I tried deleting this jar also enter image description here

This also dint work for me.

I am damn frustrated with this exception, but I am not able to fix this,

This link is really good and it address the same problem, but still I am not able to fix this can any one help me this. Dealing with "Xerces hell" in Java/Maven?

Edited

I have found out the root cause. This is snapshot from Jboss 5.1 Run-time

enter image description here

This is the snapshot from Maven dependency enter image description here

So this two jars are conflicting.

So What I did. After building the project I removed the(xml-api1.0.b2.jar) from Myproject.war and manually deployed the project in Jboos, and jboss does not throw error.

But When I do not remove the (xml-api1.0.b2.jar) from myproject.war and deployed in jboss it throws the same error.

So I have to remove the dependency from pom.xml.

For (xml-api1.0.b2.jar) I have defined the bellow dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>jaxen</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxen</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.1</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId>
            <groupId>xerces</groupId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
            <groupId>xml-apis</groupId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>xmlParserAPIs</artifactId>
            <groupId>xerces</groupId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency> 

But when I comment this dependency from my pom.xml Still I get the jar in Maven dependency as I have shown in the image.

I am really not getting from where this (xml-api1.0.b2.jar) is coming. can any one let me by looking my pom.xml.

xml-api1.0.b2.jar is imported by : poi-3.9. The poi-3.9 depend on dom4j,and dom4j include xml-api1.0.b2 So,you can upgrade poi to 3.16,it will fix this problem.
