Always, always, always provide the *exact* Tomcat, JRE/JDK, and platform versions you're using. There have been dozens of releases of Tomcat 5. First problem: > May 28, 2010 3:02:24 AM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader > validateJarFile > INFO: validateJarFile(/usr/share/tomcat5/webapps/MyServices/WEB-INF/ > lib/servlet-api-2.4.jar) > - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. > Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class You must never place the servlet-api-*.jar file in your webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory; the container (Tomcat, in this case) provides that jar. Second problem: > 03:02:24,140 ERROR [/MyServices]:3715 - Error configuring application > listener of class ServletContextListener > java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number > in .class file You compiled your class with a JDK newer than the JRE you're trying to run it on.
