I have been developing a servlet application, that runs fine within the ide (netbeans).
When i deploy the war file to tomcat the application works fine. the context.xml file lists the servlet context as /servlet/ICTHelpdesk and the manager app lists the correct context and everything works fine, until tomcat (5.0.28) is restarted. the manager now lists two contexts /ICTHelpdesk and /servlet/appICTHelpdesk name, but /servlet/ICTHelpdesk will not start, and the following exception is thrown.
