The message above means you have Servlet classes included with the web
application. Since the spec
disallows overriding these classes that are provided by the container,
Tomcat gives you this message.
I would remove any javax.servlet classes from your web application.

I'm thinking this is because ApplicationAssociate is loaded in two
different classloaders.
The presence of GlassFishConfigureListener in the stacktrace kinda
confirms this.
GlassFishConfigureListener was a JSF 1.2 FCS artifact and shouldn't be
present in
1.2_04 P02.
Where have you installed JSF 1.2_04 P02? In WEB-INF/lib of the web
application,
or in TOMCAT_HOME/lib?
