New subject: [xwiki-users] Install Trouble

19 Oct 2005

I have installed Tomcat 4.1.14, MySQL 4.1 and XWiki 0.9.840.  I have
tried following the instructions listed on the download page:  Install
on Windows with standard Apache Tomcat and receive errors when trying to
start up Tomcat.  The following error is from the log:

I have searched in the WAR to find the JAR that might contain
SetCharacterEncodingFilter, but do not find anything.  What JAR is this
class supposed to be packaged in and how can I find that JAR?  Any
recommendations to get me up and going would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
