Error description
The server may encounter SRVE8501E: The servlet container did not load with an acceptable version error for some features. The issue is most likely to occur with collective features such as collectiveController-1.0 and collectiveMember-1.0. This error can also happen with any feature that relies on the two mentioned. The servlet container keeps an internal record of which feature version is loaded, such as 3.1 or 4.0. The servlet code may misbehave if this error occurs since the internal version defaults to version 30.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Webcontainer on Liberty version * * 22.0.0.2 that use collective features. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Fix SRVE8501E Error for Servlet * * Features * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When the collective related features (i.e collectiveController- 1.0, collectiveMember-1.0, or any others that require these collective features) are enabled, the server exception "SRVE8501E: The servlet container did not load with an acceptable version" might occur. Due to this error, the server uses the default 3.0 servlet version. The application might therefore misbehave due to the incorrect version.
