I have been trying for days to get a response from tomcat.  I get no errors
when I start tomcat, and it appears to successfully start a standalone 
server,
which is what I want.  However, when I enter http://localhost:8080/ in the
IE browser, the browser responds with a page unavailable error.  After some
apparently standard stuff in the admin log file, the 1st error message I get
is the following:

2003-03-06 11:24:38 StandardWrapper[/admin:default]: Loading container 
servlet default
2003-03-06 11:24:38 StandardWrapper[/admin:default]: Marking servlet default 
as unavailable
2003-03-06 11:24:38 StandardContext[/admin]: Servlet /admin threw load() 
exception
javax.servlet.ServletException: Error instantiating servlet class 
org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet

Any suggestions on how I can fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.  
I am
at my wits end with this, and I about to delete tomcat and try some other 
servlet 
container.
