I am running a web application using Tomcat and Java Servlets, JSP's, etc.

I am aware that in order to use Servlets, it is dependent on the Servlet-api.jar file. Initially I placed this jar file in the

WEB-INF/lib/
directory.

This has worked fine for me for months during the developmental phase.

When we put the application onto the server space we are using, we started seeing wierd problems showing up in the Catalina.out file telling us that there was dependency problems with the servlet-api.jar file.

I am aware that tomcat has this jar file in its container, and that I should remove it from the

WEB-INF/lib/
directory. I have tried this and it does not work.

What do I have to do when I remove this jar file from the local files and allow it to depend on tomcats servlet-api.jar file.
