title: SEVERE: ContainerBase.addChild: start:org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start error
body: <p>I encountered this error when I tried to run my application in Tomcat.
  I already checked the version of tomcat and java home. Both use java 6.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a missing jar? Or is it my web xml? I'm not using any maven tool. </p>
