Hey list,
I am running into a problem which I am sure some of you have came across.
I am trying to compile a servlet at run time. My eclipse environment's JRE
is 1.5
I placed tools.jar in the common/lin directory.
When I compile the class file, this is what I get
javax.servlet.ServletException: Error allocating a servlet instance
org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:105
)
org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:148)

I know it has something to do with the JVM, but I can't get to the solution.
I exausted every single option.
PLEASE HELP
Thanks
