problem in web.xml

[Prakash Dwivedi]

Hello friends,
I am using of jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18
I am getting errors as soon as i start my tomcat
I have made only one new entry after which i got these errors.
i.e. i added listener tag, although my listener class is working fine.

 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
    PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
    "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>5</session-timeout>
</session-config>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>/jsp/redirect.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<listener>
  <listener-class>
    com.webrizon.franconnect.control.web.SessionCounter
  </listener-class>
</listener>
</web-app>

Errors that i got on my screen:

Put the listener element before the other two. The deployment descriptor requires some elements to be in a particular order.
