      The author considers discontinuous solutions to the Euler system for the van der Waals fluid in two dimensions. These solutions contain one shock and one phase transition. The general case when there is a characteristic between the shock and the phase boundary is studied. The local (with respect to time) existence of such solutions is proved. The method of the proof is linearization and an iteration scheme.
