Invoking constructor throws ArrayTypeMismatchException exception

Question

I generated a hierarchy of classes from a xsd set of files. Say the class, that contains instances of other classes is Place and the place has Address, Categories, Tags and so on.

When trying to instantiate a new Tags object in a for loop, I get

ArrayTypeMismatchException: Attempted to access an element as a type incompatible with the array

It happens on this line, when in the loop:

tags currTags = new tags();

If I move that line out of the loop block, I get the same exception when I try to assign the filled with data object to the instance of the Place object:

currPlace.tags = currTags;

This is the definition of the class Tags:

[System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("PrjName", "1.0.0.0")]
[System.SerializableAttribute()]
[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]
[System.ComponentModel.DesignerCategoryAttribute("code")]

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute(Namespace="http://placeregistry.places.someaddress.com/xxx/v1", IsNullable=false)]
public partial class tags {

    private tag[] tagField;

    private string[] textField;

    private System.Xml.XmlAttribute[] anyAttrField;

    /// <remarks/>
    [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("tag")]
    public tag[] tag {
        get {
            return this.tagField;
        }
        set {
            this.tagField = value;
        }
    }

    /// <remarks/>
    [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTextAttribute()]
    public string[] Text {
        get {
            return this.textField;
        }
        set {
            this.textField = value;
        }
    }

    /// <remarks/>
    [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAnyAttributeAttribute()]
    public System.Xml.XmlAttribute[] AnyAttr {
        get {
            return this.anyAttrField;
        }
        set {
            this.anyAttrField = value;
        }
    }
}

I just can't get it what happens and where do I go wrong in order to produce this error. Any ideas and suggestions are welcome!
