I use the xerces.jar SAX parser under Tomcat 4.0.1 with no problems. I believe you will however have a problem if you have another parser 'installed alongside' as you put it. It was the root of an initial problem I had when my IDE-deployed .war file included a different SAX parser, and at runtime I then got ClassCastException errors under Tomcat. I removed the one from my .war, and xerces SAX parsing worked great. Hope this helps at least a little...
