Looks OK, if those paths are correct.
You can enable debug logging for that class and it will list whatever
jars it finds.
Is the following shell command able to list your jar files?
ls /web/lib/
> /opt/tomcat-6.0.35
> /opt/tomcat-7.0.39
> /opt/tomcat-7.0.40

You are using 7.0.40, 7.0.42, or some ancient version?
Do you know how configure Tomcat with separate $CATALINA_BASE and
$CATALINA_HOME?
Do they have the same value for you, or different ones? (As printed by
catalina.sh just before Tomcat starts).
