Jeff,
I've come up to a better solution: just create a servlet 2.5 style
header for web.xml. To to that,
1. Remove these two lines from web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//
EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd";>
2. Replace the first line (<web-app>) with this one:
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee";
version="2.5">
