We consider a boundary value problem in a bounded domain involving a degenerate operator of the form $$L(u)=-textrm{div} (a(x) abla u)$$ and a suitable nonlinearity $f$. The function $a$ vanishes on smooth 1-codimensional submanifolds of $Omega$ where it is not allowed to be $C^{2}$. By using weighted Sobolev spaces we are still able to find existence of solutions which vanish, in the trace sense, on the set where $a$ vanishes.
