Try to check the validity of the Deployment Descriptor for the web application using weblogic builder before deploying the web application into the weblogic server.

[h Huang]

It seems a bug of weblogic.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser.parse(DOMParser.java:271)
try this:
import java.io.*;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.xml.sax.InputSource;

DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
Reader reader = new FileReader("SAMPLE.XML");
InputSource source = new InputSource(reader);
Document doc = db.parse(source);

I encounter this problem:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Invalid encoding name "GBK"
and the above solves the problem.
