It probably IS there, but the same error is thrown if:
- the JVM used on the server is older than the JVM used
   to compile the jar, or
- you have two different versions of the same library
   in your CLASSPATH.

If the former is true: compile iText with an older JDK.
If the latter is true: check your CLASSPATH and remove
all old iText versions.

Of course iText works in a UNIX environment.
I'm using it on Solaris, Debian and Fedora.
Note that your problem is not iText related.
It could happen with any jar file.
