问题
I'm developing a kind of complex hello world-spring webapp (since it has just the minimum functionality: one controller and one view (made with thymeleaf), simple database connection (oracle) and simple email sending capabilities).
Now I'm trying to deploy this webapp into tomcat-7 using my IDE (IntelliJ Idea 12.1.3 Ultimate) with not success at all while I'm obtaining from console:
Artifact infoSynth:war exploded: Artifact is being deployed, please wait...
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext startInternal
SEVERE: Error listenerStart
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext startInternal
SEVERE: Context [/synthesizer] startup failed due to previous errors
org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig deployDirectory
And from Tomcat's log:
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext listenerStart
SEVERE: error configuring application listener of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener

Before adding the email stuff (taken from here), the webapp just works fine, but when adding email related service and controller everything goes down and the org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext startInternal SEVERE: Error listenerStart appears.
I'm using Spring 3.1.1, Thymeleaf 2.0.12, I'm NOT using maven and this is my web.xml:
<!-- Spring -->
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
<listener>
<listener-class>
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
</listener-class>
</listener>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Someone suggests something as basic as char enconding. Do you think that could be a valid reason? Can anyone put me in the right direction? Some further reading? Some advice? Thanks in advance!
回答1:
The clue that helps me to solve my problem was here: Tomcat Severe listenerStart error
As I need to update my libraries some of these were missed from new artifacts and that was the underlying reason for the error.
SOLVED!
回答2:
What happened in my case was that I spelled the name of my class wrong in the in web.xml
I was not able to figure out what was going on till I found the localhost.log and saw a classnotfound exception...
For some reason the actual error was not in the catalina.out it was under localhost.yyyy-mm-dd.log in the logs folder in your Tomcat directory
回答3:
I had a number of XML files which had data (commented data) added before the XML definition (<?xml version="1.0"?>). Once I removed the commented strings and moved them to be after the XML definition, I started my web applications with no issues.
