The root cause is
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest.getUserPrincipal()Ljava/security/Princ

Meaning that a class cannot find getUserPrincipal() in HttpServletRequest. This is usualyl due to having and extra copy of HttpServletRequest in the wrong spot. Either in the system classloader (java/ext/) or in WEB-INF/lib, or something VERY similar.

You probably have a servlet.jar floating around somewhere where it

shouldn't be.

Hi

I am running the tomcat version 4.1.24 for my web application.
When i start the tomcat it gets started well with the usual prompt

messages.


But when i try to access the example directory or any sample pages, it

does


not show the jsp or html pages at all.The IE window comes out to be

empty


and i am not getting any error or exception in the server prompt.

On further analysis, it has been revealed that catalina log gives the
following error messages.
