I have had the same problem.
Tomcat 4.1.12 includes xercesImpl.jar in common/endorsed,
if xercesImpl.jar is also in axis/WEB-INF/lib then you get this error.

Nothing jumps out, but xerces is the likely trouble spot. This is a guess;
you are only the second reporter of this problem.
some things to try (with a reattempt every time)
1. pull xerces from the axis lib dir
2. add xerces to the CATALINA_HOME/common/lib
