I am working on a project for the company I'm employed by. They are using Magnolia CMS. I am getting this error in the console in Eclipse when I try to start the Tomcat server.
I have searched for a solution but am finding it difficult. I've tried reinstalling eclipse, tomcat, deleting the .m2 repository and rebuilding, cleaning the project, cleaning tomcat working directory, commenting out the config for log4j in magnolia.properties.
I've googled the errors but not found anything helpful. I have tried on a completely different machine and I get the same error so it might be something to do with the code rather than the environment. However, I have colleagues who are on windows who dont get this error. Any help would be appreciated.
Tomcat 8.5, mac osx 10.13.6 high sierra, java 8 update 191 (build 1.8.0_191-b12), magnolia version is not the latest version (I will find out and update).

com.google.inject.CreationException: Guice creation errors:
What the error is telling you is that various type mappings are missing. Based on the mappings mentioned in the error, I'd guess that those are mappings normally described in magnolia-core-x.y.z.jar:/META-INF/magnolia/core.xml. Jar itself or at least the classes it contains must be on the classpath otherwise Magnolia would not get even as far in the startup as it did. How you can be missing the mapping file from the jar is a mystery to me.
Are you trying to compile Magnolia from the sources or using existing precompiled version? Or perhaps you have file with same name somewhere on the classpath that is loaded by classloader prior the correct one from magnolia-core.jar?

The GRAVE: Exception au démarrage du filtre struts2 can be translated in SEVERE: Exception in start of struts2 filter
I saw this answer java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: HttpServletRequest but I have already not servlet-api in the WEB-INF/lib folder but in the Tomcat/lib. And I have exactly the same .jar between the current modified project and the old one.
What can I do about this ?
The error comes from the convention plugin. This plugin is used to create additional configuration objects by convention. If you havily use annotations to define Java based configuration for struts actions then it invokes a reflection mechanism to process creating runtime configuration elements.
The NoClassDefFoundError says that you missing some classes on the classpath of the current classloader. Usually it fixed by adding missing jar to the classpath.
It could be ignored if your application used different classloader than a servlet container is used. Tomcat is a servlet container which is using multiple classloaders in the multithreaded pool. It could also have bugs the one had discovered in the 8.x version.
In many ways missing classes in the broken servlet environment leads to change/update the servlet container itself and download correct dependencies from the Maven central repository.
I finally found a solution but I hesitated to post because I don't know how I did that.
I was trying this :
Duplicate the existing Eclipse server into another folder.
Create a new server in the Servers view in Eclipse with the new folder.
Click-right on the new server -> Clean and Clean Tomcat Work Directory...
Go to Run -> Run configurations
Totally random action :
Double click on one of the server
The server instance start. Stop it. Restart your project. The problem has disappeared.
I think a clean publish is what I needed but we will never know..

I've seen dozens of posts about this exception:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
org.jboss.logging.Logger.getMessageLogger(Ljava/lang/Class;Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/Objec
But no one does make sense to me, since I have the same “.war” file running on different servers (I don't have any problems running the application on my local system in Eclipse as well). Currently the application is running on Linux Opensuse and I am migrating it to Linux Ubuntu 16.04. I don't think that I am missing any library because I copied and pasted the exactly Tomcat installation from the old server on which the applications is currently running. Any clue? Please help me.
I'm trying to restart an old project that I had to go back into when my server died. This project goes out and reads a couple of hardware sensors through a USB hardware interface and it DID work, the last time I compiled and ran it. That was over a year ago, though, against an old JDK (probably 1.6) and an old version of Tomcat (probably 6). This time, using Java 8 and Tomcat 8, I get a truly horrendous error when my new Tomcat install tries to start up:

It causes the whole JDK to shut down. Has anyone seen anything like this, and do you know how I could fix this problem?
This usually happens when external library jar is not compatible with the upgraded java version, please check version of phidget.jar and upgrade it to latest.
Hope this helps.

There is no issue in the annotations used in the code as the same setup with similar set of jar is working in other systems. With my initial analysis I doubt the issue is with the versions of cglib and asm used. Have tried with latest versions of these jars and also with cglib_nodep but getting same issue. Here is my classpath config.
http://i.stack.imgur.com/oHvOT.png
On debugging, I see cglib.Enhancer is failing because of NoSuchMethodException while operating on the configuration proxy. Any idea on the possible causes for NoSuchMethodException in this specific scenario ?
I don't know what is causing this problem, but I solved it by switching to Tomcat 7.0.29
My app is quit big and using many jars and tools.
Platform - windows 2008 server, Spring , hibernate, Quarts, mysql, tomcat-7.35

Tell Tomcat not to scan your application if you are not using any java based Servlet configuration add metadata-complete="true" to your web-app in web.xml
Restrict what jar files tomcat scans. see http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/jar-scanner.html
Update 1
you need to pass -Xss4m to your jvm to set the stack size, -Xss10m would set it to 10mb.
I am using Hibernate and Spring in my application too with annotations, the scanning that tomcat does is to look for Servlet 3.0 annotations so you can still restrict things while using hibernate and spring annotations, since hibernate and spring annoations are scanned for by spring and hibernate.
If you are running tomcat as a windows service you will need, to pass the arguments via procrun since that is the executable that is launching the jvm. The docs for procrun are at http://commons.apache.org/daemon/procrun.html. tomcat7.exe is really procrun.exe renamed, which means that all your jvm options are written to the registery under
The basic Service definitions are maintained under the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\
Additional parameters are stored in the registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Software Foundation\ProcRun
2.0\\Parameters
On 64-bit Windows procrun always uses 32-bit registry view for storing
the configuration. This means that parameters will be stored inside:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Apache Software
Foundation\ProcRun 2.0\
Update 2
Tomcat has been tweaking how the scanner works between point releases. try rolling forward through the versions 7.25,7.26 ... etc to find the version at which it breaks, the go through the release notes for that version to see if they changed how the scanner works.
Another thing you can try doing, is to create another war file which has all the third party jars in your WEB-INF\lib but not your code. See if you get that error if you start up, and if you do then should file a bug report with tomcat and make available to them your sample project that replicates the problem, on github or some other free code hosting system. I am sure if there is a bug they will fix it.
To fix this for TC Server 2.9, running Tomcat 7.0.39 I restricted the jars to skip during startup for the context config using:
org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.jarsToSkip=*.jar
in catalina.properties.
In My case iTextpdf JAR(5.06 version) causing problem as it had dependancy on org.bouncyCastle.*.jar and it was creating cyclic dependancy.
After updating it to 5.5.6 version, worked perfectly.
If you are adding maven dependancy , clean and update maven project.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
<artifactId>itextpdf</artifactId>
<version>5.5.6</version>
</dependency>
I'm not running Tomcat as a Windows service, so to pass -Xss10m through, I edited catalina.bat, towards the bottom:
:doJpda
if not "%SECURITY_POLICY_FILE%" == "" goto doSecurityJpda
%_EXECJAVA% %JAVA_OPTS% %CATALINA_OPTS% %JPDA_OPTS% %DEBUG_OPTS% -Djava.endorsed.dirs="%JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS%" -Xss10m -classpath "%CLASSPATH%" -
Dcatalina.base="%CATALINA_BASE%" -Dcatalina.home="%CATALINA_HOME%" -Djava.io.tmpdir="%CATALINA_TMPDIR%" %MAINCLASS% %CMD_LINE_ARGS% %ACTION%
goto end
