Hi rishi, I had a bit of fun with this myself. In the end we have steered away from JBoss so I don't have much help other than this advice.
>From what I found there is two ways around it. The first is quick (and >dirty?). Just delete xml-apis-1.3.04.jar and xercesImpl-2.8.1.jar (or their >applicable versions) from the Axis2 war and deploy that. It should work then. The other way is to mess around with Class Loading Configuration. I didn't have much joy with this but I didn't play with it for long enough to really know: http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/ClassLoadingConfiguration Good luck!
