Internetfab, if you have exact same problem as I did, than you should try this: It is possible that you have duplicate entries listed for both the 'httpservlet' and 'httpservlets' servlets in the file '/usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/conf/web.xml'. You must commenting out the duplicates and restarting tomcat and your tomcat should work. This is what cpanel support team did for me and it is working.
I must say that I would not figure this out by my self and I have submited support ticket cpanel coze I have prettymuch new license and they helped me.
So, try this and let me know if it helped you.
