Hello. I am trying to run my first servlet using Tomcat. As
far as I can tell, I have written my servlet class to conform
to the definitions provided by Sun.

Basically what I did was package my classes up in a .war file
which includes a WEB-INF/web.xml file. The file includes the
following:

     <servlet>
       <servlet-name>SessionManager</servlet-name>
       <description>
       This servlet manages sessions and hands out Session IDs
       </description>
       <servlet-class>com.rapid7.session.SessionManager</servlet-class>
       <!-- Load this servlet at server startup time -->
       <load-on-startup>5</load-on-startup>
     </servlet>

When I run tomcat, it appears to correctly expand the .WAR file, but
I get a message stating:

XmlMapper: Can't find method setDescription in Wrapper(SessionManager null) 
CLASS class org.apache.tomcat.core.ServletWrapper
cannot load servlet name: SessionManager

Has anyone seen this before? I searched the archives and couldn't find
any information on this. Pointers to previous threads or pointers to
documentation would be helpful.

Thanks,
        Chad
