A different David here ... given the error doesn't have actual version
numbers in it, it may be a corrupted class. Can you recompile it and
see if that fixes the issue?

Hi David
Thanks for your response.
At least one class file in your war requires a jvm which's version
should be higher than the one running tomcat. It generally
occurs when
you try to load a java 5 compiled class file using a java 1.4
or earlier
jvm. I'll check twice the version tomcat is actually using to
run. It is
most probably not what you said, because tomcat requires a
JDK, and not
a JRE! Since tomcat did not refuse to start mentionning it's
not a jdk,
it certainly did not use JRE1.5.0_14 in your server.
Having had problems with this server before, I uninstalled every JDK and JRE I
could find and installed the JRE mentioned. When I installed Tomcat 5.5, I
selected that JRE. Tomcat seems to run fine and a previous version of my
application also seems to be running quite happily. Why does Tomcat 5.5 need a
JDK (only answer, if it is not RTFM, because I obviously haven't done it
properly)
There are a few JREs left in Oracle directories and because I don't know what
they are I have had to leave them since the server is also used by others.
Below is the server path:

The truth is, that from what I can see, this server is in a very "iffy" state, but
unfortunately I have no control over it and I'll have to request our IT department to
"re-do" the server which will probably take weeks (I'm not allowed to do it myself - I
wouldn't have used Windows in the first place, but there you go ... ).
Before going the re-do way I wanted to try and resolve the problem if possible.
I'll start by moving my path to jre1.5.0 to the front of the path. But if
anyone spots anything else that could help resolve the problem, I'd appreciate
some pointers.

Jannetta
