Are you intending to run with a SecurityManager? If not, then disable
it. In fact, you ought to disable it, anyway, just to make sure that
nothing else is wrong. Once you confirm that your application deploys
correctly and runs, then you can turn the SecurityManager back on and
give it the correct access.

So, your application is attempting to read this particular directory.
Have you granted such access to this directory in your catalina.policy file?

You can find catalina.policy in $CATALINA_HOME/conf. I would recommend
that you make a backup copy of the original before you start messing
around with it.

Hope that helps you get started,
