This can be a little difficult to debug. Setting the Java system property
jaxp.debug=1 can help. 

Make sure you are using Saxon 8.9.0.2. The build of 8.9 was incorrect,
because of a bug in Ant, which caused the services information in the JAR
files to be set up incorrectly.

It's generally safer to set system properties explicitly:

javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory=net.sf.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl

rather than relying on the classpath search.

Unless you really need to write code with no compile-time references to
Saxon classes, the simplest of all is just to instantiate the Saxon
TransformerFactory directly:

TransformerFactory factory = new net.sf.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl()

Apart from anything else this saves the high cost of the classpath search.
