After upgrade to Tomcat 7 servlets stopped working
I recently upgraded through EasyApache Tomcat from 5.5 to 7 and servelts stopped working. The jsp files are working. It seems as if tomcat doesn't see the WEB-INF directory. (It's in /home/username/public_html/WEB-INF )
I've upgraded because it said that Tomcat 5.5 is no longer supported so I feared of possible vulnerabilities found.
What should I do about it?

Hello :) Does the issue persist after restarting Tomcat? Do you notice any particular errors or warnings in the /var/log/easy-tomcat7/catalina.err log file? Thank you. 0 -

Hello, Have you consulted our Tomcat migration documentation? That documentation has a section about reinstalling and re-enabling user servlets. If you are still having issues after reading the Tomcat documentation, please feel free to open a ticket with our support staff so you can get your sites back up and running. Thank you!0 -

Yes the issue persist after restarting Tomcat, also I've reenabled servlets for that user and restarted Tomcat one more time without results. In cataline.err there are no significant errors (at least which I observed) but it shows: INFO: Deploying web application directory /home/username/public_html/cgi-bin ... INFO: Deploying web application directory /home/username/public_html/images There are no WEB-INF or public_html added. I've tried to move WEB-INF to cgi-bin folder without any results. Let's give it a few more tries before opening ticket.0 -

The ticket number is 5392127 BTW: Where should I put the war file so it will be autodeployed by the new Tomcat 7? (in public_html or in root user folder?)0 -
To update, the index.jsp page and a test JSP page were confirmed as working well, indicating servlets are functioning. It looks like the issue is isolated to the individual script that's uploaded to the account. WAR files are referenced here: WAR File Deployment Thank you. 0 -

No it doesn't, recently I've found out that servlets work on 8080 port, but don't work through Apache.0 -
Update: it was fixed by CPanel support, by adding: SetHandler jakarta-servlet SetEnv JK_WORKER_NAME ajp13 to .htaccess 0
