Answer

Answer

Error Message: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.servlet.ServletContext.getSessionCookieConfig()
Ljavax/servlet/SessionCookieConfig;

Symptoms: Tomcat cannot start

Probable Causes: This is a new method in Servlets 3.0 (which Tomcat 7 supports). There is a Servlets 2.x API is your CLASSPATH or JDK's extension directory. Solution: Check your CLASSPATH. Remove servlet-api.jar from JDK's extension directory if any.

Question 2

I am having problems starting tomcat for some strange reason, it used to start before without a problem. The error is so long that I can't copy it completely from the command prompt. Anyone know what could be going wrong?

    C:\apache-tomcat-7.0.8\bin>catalina.bat start

    Using CATALINA_HOME:   "C:\apache-tomcat-7.0.8"
    Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: "C:\apache-tomcat-7.0.8\temp"

    Using JRE_HOME:        "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_23"
