I'm attempting put Alfresco on one of our development laptops to demonstrate what is possible with this CMS.
After installation, I am running into the following errors when installing 3.2r OOo, version and am not sure
of the root cause.

Things I've done so far: (Windows XP SP3)
Fixed: resolved the mysql 1067 error I was getting.
Tried: Downloaded java directly and tried the OOo version.
Tried: Installing full version of 3.2r with built-in database and got the same issue.
Verified: I have a path for Java_Home in my environment variables.

I have review the documentation, but am feeling stuck at the moment.

When I start the Alfresco server I get the following error:

13:50:49,367 ERROR [org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader] Context initialization failed

Any ideas as to where I'm going wrong?

Thank you for any replies and assistance.

Either do what the exception says and install the correct JAXB library.
Or use a more recent version of Java.
