You don't have an XML error. Here's what the API documentation says about that error (you could look it up):

'Thrown when the "verifier" detects that a class file, though well formed, contains some sort of internal inconsistency or security problem.'

It's saying that the class org.apache.crimson.parser.Parser2$DocLocator is fouled up in some way. Hard to say what this means... how did you install the XML classes? As part of a Java 1.4 install or in some other way?
