Satish,
One source of this error is an XML Parser somewhere in your classpath that does not support Sax 2.
I removed this problem by eliminating the following from my classpath:
jaxp.jar
parser.jar
xt.jar (I did not have this one, but others have.)

These can hide in your TomCat or Ant installations, etc.

Another dev told me that since Tomcat uses XML for its config files, it contains an XML parser itself,and the problem is only fixed
by a Tomcat version upgrade. However, the problem for me went away when I eliminated those JARS. That would seem to indicate that
Tomcat will uses Xerces for its internal parsing needs?

Good luck.
