I'm relitivly new to servlets but ....

  Server built:   Apr 21 2004 11:49:03

The Error
Jul 25, 2004 7:05:24 AM org.apache.commons.digester.Digester error
SEVERE: Parse Error at line 18 column -1: Element "web-app" does not allow "servlet" 
here.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Element "web-app" does not allow "servlet" here.

This is repeated for lines 27,36 & 45 each of which is <servlet> tag.
All the servlets seem to work just fine except every evening my system
falls over and I have to restart tomcat (and at the same time I restart Apache).

I've looked at the dtd and it looks like the xml should be good. I've
run the web.xml file through od to see if I got some strange characters in it but 
couldn't find anything.

Here is my web.xml file.

What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions?

You have to group <servlet> tags together. Cannot mix them with <servlet-mapping>. Sounds stupid, but that is the DTD.


Nix.
