org.apache.xml.serializer.ToXMLSAXHandler cannot be cast to org.apache.xml.serializer.SerializationHandler

Question

I'm using JBoss6 M5 and jdk1.6-22. When I try to run the server, I get the deployment error. Does anyone have any clues on what could be the problem? Thx!

Deployment "vfs:///mnt/data/programming/rz/server/server/default/deploy/psuite-metadata.war" is in error due to the following reason(s): org.apache.xml.serializer.utils.WrappedRuntimeException: org.apache.xml.serializer.ToXMLSAXHandler cannot be cast to org.apache.xml.serializer.SerializationHandler
