problem with tomcat 4.1.29, java 1.4.2, windows XP

[Mladen Adamovic]

On my previous Windows installation everything worked fine, but now, after
complete reinstallation of XP and all programs I have error in my WebApp.

I'm using commons-fileupload-1.0.jar

And problem is here
public class FilesUpload extends HttpServlet
{
....
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
{
DiskFileUpload fu = new DiskFileUpload(); //AT THIS LINE
//TOMCAT MAKE EXCEPTION
<snip>


Now the problem/exception:
description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it
from fulfilling this request.

exception

javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet execution threw an exception

So, it seems that Tomcat cannot find class javax.servlet.ServletInputStream
?!?!
What to do?

Restart your server?

Restart your server?

It does NOT help, but thanks for reply and time spent on reading my post
Ryan. Everytime I start tomcat I haven't problem with other things except
this one (and I hadn't this problem before complete reinstallation of my
computer).

Probably a missing or corrupted .jar file... I'd re-install Tomcat. Or move
to 4.1.30, it's the lastest version.

 

[Steve Burrus]

Actually, version 4.1.30 is NOT the most current version of Tomcat at all, as u
said : >>"4.1.30, it's the lastest version."<< !! It's actually version 5.0.19
of tomcat!! I upgraded, just last nite, from version 5.0.16 to 5.0.19 of it!
