I'm not an expert, but I believe (from experience & previous googling) that tomcat 5.0.x will respond with an exception (IncorrectClassFileFormat or something) when it encounters class files compiled with jdk1.5, and that thus yes you need 5.5.

There are some recent threads about migrating from 5.0 to 5.5, in particular I recall discussion of change of default logging library.

Hi all, We are currently using Tomcat-5.0.28 and JDK 1.4.2_03.
We need to move onto JDK 1.5. We would build our war file using JDK 1.5.
Can we continue to use Tomcat-5.0.28 with JDK 1.5? Do you see any problem? Are there any known issues?
Since Tomcat 5.5 is designed to run on J2SE 5.0 [JDK 1.5] and later,
are we required to move to Tomcat 5.5 in order to move to JDK 1.5?
