In a fresh jEdit 5.5.0 install, openjdk 11.0.5 on Linux.
Steps to reproduce:
1. install Templates and XMLPlugin
2. XMLPlugin installs a template directory at startup
3. activate any one of them e.g. Plugins > Templates > XMLPlugin > xslt-2.0.vm
4. The first time nothing happens
5. The second time an exception is logged
{{{

Thanks for opening the issue, Eric. I can just add that the problem is not specific to the XMLPlugin's templates, nor to XML files; my experience is that it occurs for any template, of any type. |

Weird. I followed your steps and it works fine for me. Would you verify your versions
of oro, velocity, log4j, and jakartacommons, please?

To be sure I deleted the settings (already created using pjo/ant) and installed only Templates: same result with a basic template, containing only the word HELLO in allcaps... |

Would you take a look at plugin bug [1882](https://sourceforge.net/p/jedit/plugin-bugs/1882/) There are two exceptions in the log files attached to that ticket, the second one is the same as the one you're seeing. Are you also seeing the first one? |

I don't get the NoClassDefFoundError, but nothing happens the first time I insert a template. Maybe the exception is silently discarded at some point... called_templates_twice.log (12.5Kio) |

Okay, I figured out why it works for me and not for you -- I still have a copy of commons-lang-2.6.jar in my ~/.jedit/jars folder. I think this is from a previous version of Jakarta Commons. It has the StringUtils class that the version of Velocity included with the Templates plugin needs. I guess there are a couple of ways to fix this, either update the Templates plugin to use a new version of Velocity and associated libraries, or include the older commons-lang-2.6.jar with Templates. |
