We've discussed this quite often on this list -- the short answer is 
that 5.0 was designed to run on Tomcat 4.x. If you can, you ought to 
move back to Tomcat 4.1.27 or so.

For the long answer (e.g. what classes you'd have to try to mess with to 
get it working), read back through the archives -- particularly from 
this month and last month.
