HI all,
I am using Tomcat 5.5.23 & jre 1.5.0. I am able to start the tomcat server properly & am also able to access the tomcat home page using http://localhost:8080 . But when I execute any of the JSP examples which are given on homepage it gives the following error,:-

type Exception report

message

description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception

Is this a fresh install?
Have you brought in any jar files that might conflict with Tomcat's; either in your app or in the tomcat/common/lib directory?

Did you put a j2ee.jar in your JDK's directory anywhere?

yes this is a fresh install, & from the beginning itself i started getting error. I have following jar files in my lib folder:-
commons-el.jar
jasper-compiler.jar
jasper-compiler-jdt.jar
jasper-runtime.jar
jsp-api.jar
naming-factory.jar
naming-factory-dbcp.jar
naming-resources.jar
servlet-api.jar

I first thought servlet.jar file might be missing thats why added it in lib folder but still its giving me the same error
