I had this exact problem (and the SAXParserFactory error too).
This SAXParserFactory was solved by downloading the jaxp library from Sun.
The config error was solved by putting *all 3* jar files in that jaxp file in the
CLASSPATH somewhere or modifying CLASSPATH in the
tomcat startup files to point where you have them.
That solved it for me, at least.
