Error during startup processing

[Matt Sales <sa...@sealsco.com>]

When starting up tomcat, I get an error stating that it can't find the
HttpServlet class.  I've actually had this webapp up and running for a week,
and now, suddenly, it bombs tomcat.  I messed with the server.xml file a
little, but I changed it back to the way it was.  I don't see how the
server.xml file could make this happen, anyway.  The webapp just can't seem
to find the server/lib directory (I think?).

I can start up tomcat without this webapp and it works fine.  I know it's a
stupid mistake I've made, and it's killing me.  Has anyone had a similar
problem?  The stack trace is below.  Thanks.
