I’ve gotten something similar to this if you remove an SP from the IdP’s metadata that had been used with uApprove.  I chose to leave SP's in metadata rather than try to change the database.  I don’t know if this is the same underlying issue, but I would suspect so, with a root cause of:

The root cause of this error was: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Attribute "id" was already specified for element "metadata:MetadataProvider".

Something about your relying-party.xml file is not loadable.  You probably have two ID’s on a MetadataProvider element, or two MetadataProviders that have the same ID, or something.
