Can you please post the exact error and also the output from typing

show interfaces status err-disabled

There was a bug filed but it was junked, because it is mostly caused by a STP loop or bad cabling. The following bug more details on this

You might also want to consider err-disable recovery. You can enable it using

2950-A#conf t

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

2950-A(config)#errdisable recovery cause loopback

HTH, rate if it does
