SEVERE: Parse error in application web.xml file at jndi:/localhost/Example/WEB-INF/web.xml
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The processing instruction target matching "[xX][mM][lL]" is not allowed.

From above log, I can conclude the follwing:
1. Its a parsing error in file "web.xml"
2. And the problem is with the "processing instructions" t line 4 column 9 and processing instructions starts with <? ..?>

Solution:
I will find out the web.xml and then look for the specific line no as point out by the exception message, If I found some unexpected character there then I remove it and then validate it before deploying it in the Tomcat.

If you google this problem, you'll find thousands of people facing the same problem. Is there anything (even space or line feeds) before your starting <?xml ...?> tag in web.xml?? If yes, then remove them...
