5.5.7 Throws 'Error filterStart' But Still Works?

[Bim Paras <bp...@gmail.com>]

I have Tomcat 5.5.7 installed on two different machines - Win XP and
Windows 2000. I use the 'startup.bat' script provided in the '/bin'
directory and I have JDK 1.5 installed on both machines. The only
environment variables I have are JAVA_HOME as I allow the
'startup.bat' to set the other parameters:
---------------------------------------------
D:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7\bin>startup.bat
Using CATALINA_BASE:   D:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7
Using CATALINA_HOME:   D:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: D:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7\temp
Using JAVA_HOME:       C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_01
---------------------------------------------

Now in my 'webapps\ROOT' application web.xml file, I have 3 filters
that loads perfectly on my WinXP machine. However on my Windows 2000,
I get three load errors upon startup with the last shown at the end of
this email. However even with the errors, my application still works
with the filters. Does anyone have any idea why I get the load filter
error? I verified that the classes do indeed exist in my
'\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes' folder.

If you need to see my web.xml code, I can send that upon request as I
wanted to keep this initial email short as possible. Thanks.
