I think I know the problem. It seems that Xerces has problem with schema files not located in the same directory as the xml file. Another problem is an import statement inside the schema (it looks for the imported schema relativ to the xml file instead of the parent schema).
As I didn't get an answer for that, I switched to Oracle's XDK beta. Well, that library has a bug as the EntityResolver does not work, but with that workaround, it works now for me. For me, the source is too complex (I fixed the NullPointer-Exception but then it says my xml file is wrong) for finding the errors by myself.
