Tomcat requires JDK 5 according to Tomcat 5 release note .

Tomcat 5 Release note : http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-5/v5.5.27/

So you shouldn't use JDK 7 to start your Tomcat 5. You must use JDK 5 to avoid issues.

I suggest you upgrade your Tomcat to an earlier version if you want to use JDK 7.
