I developed a new application and it runs perfectly on Tomcat 7! But I am trying to deploy the same WAR on Tomcat 8 and I am getting a NullPointerException. To develop this application, I am used the following frameworks and libs:
- Maven 3;
- JPA 2 / Hibernate 4.2.6.Final;
- Spring 3.2;
- Spring Security 3.2.RC;
- MyFaces 2.1.12;
- Primefaces 4.0;
No error occurs when I deploy on Tomcat 7.0.42. Runs fine. But, when I deploy the same WAR on Tomcat 8.0.0 RC5, I am getting this exception:

Looks like you have been bitten by this change in EL 3.0
The default coercion for nulls to non-primitive types (except String) returns nulls. For instance, a null coerced to Boolean now returns a null, while a null coerced to boolean returns false.
Try setting the system property org.apache.el.parser.COERCE_TO_ZERO to true to force the EL 2.2 and earlier behaviour.
