I am still stuck with this one (shouldn't have posted it on a Saturday morning!).
I don't think it is my web.xml giving the problem - I am looking into possible problems with missing or conflicting jar files Reading through the release notes again for Tomcat 5.5.9, there is a listing of the libraries included: ============= Bundled APIs: ============= A standard installation of Tomcat 5.5 makes all of the following APIs available for use by web applications (by placing them in "common/lib" or "shared/lib"): * commons-el.jar (Commons Expression Language 1.0) * commons-logging-api.jar (Commons Logging API 1.0.x) * jasper-compiler.jar (Jasper 2 Compiler) * jasper-compiler-jdt.jar (Eclipse JDT Java compiler) * jasper-runtime.jar (Jasper 2 Runtime) * jsp-api.jar (JSP 2.0 API) * naming-common.jar (JNDI Context implementation) * naming-factory.jar (JNDI object factories for J2EE ENC support) * naming-factory-dbcp.jar (DataSource implementation based on commons-dbcp) * naming-resources.jar (JNDI DirContext implementations) * servlet-api.jar (Servlet 2.4 API) I seem to be missing: commons-logging-api.jar (Commons Logging API 1.0.x) naming-common.jar (JNDI Context implementation) from my Tomcat installation (Windows 2000, I used the windows installer jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9.exe) Why should this be the case? Where can I download these files from?
