Tomcat 4 doesn't start examples or webdav context

[Willy Faes <wi...@mediatower.be>]

Hi,

I installed tomcat-4.0b7 on mac OS X and used the default server.xml and 
web.xml

When I start tomcat this is all I get:
localhost# ./bin/startup.sh
Using CLASSPATH: /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/bin/bootstrap.jar
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.0

When I point my browser to /examples this is the error message I get:
HTTP Status 503 - This application is not currently available
The requested service (This application is not currently available) is 
not currently available.

I included log file and found the following error:
2001-08-17 11:12:51 StandardContext[/examples]: Exception starting 
filter Set Character Encoding
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: filters.SetCharacterEncodingFilter
         at 
org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:
1264)


Can anyone tell me what is wrong here?
I included the complete log file.

Thanks,
