Error running Alfresco Explorer

I just installed a Typical installation of Alfresco 3.0 using the built-in Derby database. I get the 'INFO Server startup in <seconds> ms' message when I start the server but when I try to run Explorer I get the 404 message 'The requested resource () is not available.' Also, trying to login to Alfresco Share with the username/passwd–> admin/admin gives me a Failed to Login message saying 'The remote server may be unavailable or your authentication details have not been recognized.'
There is an error during the startup log saying 'Context initialization failed' but I don't know what this means since I'm a newbie at this stuff. Can someone pleae advise? I'm posting alfresco.log below:

This issue is already on these forums.   Install a more recent version of Java to fix it.

Is there another solution? I already have the latest Java version installed.

Actually, there is an exception that is mentioned 3 times only I don't understand what it is trying to say. Something about a Java linkage error.

Constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.LinkageError: JAXB 2.0 API is being loaded from the bootstrap classloader, but this RI (from jar:file:/C:/Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/lib/jaxb-impl-2.1.7.jar!/com/sun/xml/bind/v2/model/impl/ModelBuilder.class) needs 2.1 API. Use the endorsed directory mechanism to place jaxb-api.jar in the bootstrap classloader. (See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/standards/)

There is another solution - copy JAXB jars from the WEB-INF/lib dir to the tomcat/endorsed dir.
