Two things:
1) You're on-topic, but you'd be even more on topic over on
the tomcat-users[1] list. General theory is to ask on the
most specific possible list first, then work your way
out onto the more general lists. Vendor-specific container
questions, for instance, generally get answered best on
the vendor support lists. But as long as it's even
remotely about servlets, it's ok to ask here, so...
2) Have you made sure that you don't have another (older)
version of the servlets api installed in your jre's
extension[2] directory? Like a J2EE server, or an older
servlet server?
Good luck,
