perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Brian Tierney <>]

I'm trying to install the perfSONAR MDM 3.2 using the instructions  
here in the 3.2 Admin guide (perfSONAR_MDM_3.2_Admin_Guide_1.2.pdf).  
I'm using CentOS release 5.4 on x86_64.


But when I start tomcat, I get this error:

INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/5.5.23
INFO: validateJarFile(/usr/share/tomcat5/webapps/geant2-java-xml-ls/ 
WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-5.0.28.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec  
2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class

....

SEVERE: Error listenerStart
22-Feb-10 4:46:01 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:

Any suggestions?
