Completely uninstall ServletExex and the mid-tier. Use the attached document to install ServletExec AS. Download the new version from the New Atlanta website.
Install the mid-tier. When prompted for "Select JSP Engine", select Other. It will not work unless you select other. I'm getting an error attaching the doc so I pasted it below. Hope it helps.
