body: <p>I am running a Maven project which is also a dynamic web project. I have used all Spring libraries in Maven. I created <code>web.xml</code>, but when I start my Tomcat 7 server I am getting the following message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>INFO: validateJarFile(C:\Users\mibvzd0\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\
  org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp2\wtpwebapps\hapi_hl7\WEB-INF\lib\
  servlet-api-2.4.jar) - jar not loaded.
  See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried deleting the servlet from <code>webapp/lib</code>, but it didn't work. Let me know what should be done in my case.</p>
