How many jdk's do you have installed in your computer?
Post your environment variables:

Java_home
Classpath
Path
Tomcat_home

I think the error is generated because tomcat cant find the xml tag libraries and its using
the wrong jdk.

Regards.

Can you post a copy of your web.xml file please?  (the WEB-INF\web.xml one)  :-)
I've had many troubles in the past with Tomcat, and alot of them have been due to the web.xml file.

By the way, this problem just happened recently and I can't figure out why.

Thanks for your help.
