Hi Nathan,

I did delete the other velocity tools stuff before trying the latter.

My Tomcat installation has been in use for a couple of months, fro other
applications using JSP and servlets.
The operating system is windows xp.
I do not remember changing any Tomcat defaults.
I have not tried any other wep apps packaged as Wars.
I have not tried an earlier version of Tomcat, or other servlet engines.

I have disscussd the problem with some of my colleages who have got velocity
tools working with 
Tomcat. I think that I have not perfromed the installation of velocity
correctly and intend to 
start again with a new install of velocity and velocity tools.

If you can think of anything in the mean time please let me know.

Regards

Peter lamb
