Could You please say, which OS You use?

I reported this "strange behavior" for Ubuntu 10.04 / 10.10 some time ago.

>> It seems to me like xmerl is not in the erlang install which is in your path. Check that xmerl-x.y.z is in the lib/ dir of the erlang you have in your path. or alternatively that you can load the xmerl module in a normal erlang shell.
