I was able to check whether the class (ContextLoaderListener) is copied in different places. I can confirm that the class is only located in my webapp under WEB-INF/lib. (Inside spring.jar and spring-web.jar).
The mystery gets bigger and bigger for me :) To resume, my Tomcat works most of the time, but sometimes when I start I get a ListenerStart Error because of a ClassDefNotFound error referencing org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener. Note. This happens after stopping and starting Tomcat again. I'm not deploying any newer libraries or whatsoever. In case it's useful, the web.xml of the webapp: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"; xmlns:web=" http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"; id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5"> <display-name>pack-server</display-name> <distributable /> <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file> <welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file> <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> <context-param> <param-name>javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.fmt.localizationContext</param-name> <param-value>messages</param-value> </context-param> <context-param> <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name> <param-value> classpath:applicationContext-pack-base.xml, /WEB-INF/classes/applicationContext-services.xml, /WEB-INF/classes/applicationContext-security.xml </param-value> </context-param> <context-param> <param-name>log4jExposeWebAppRoot</param-name> <param-value>false</param-value> </context-param> <filter> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher> </filter-mapping> <filter> <filter-name>Execution Context Filter</filter-name> <filter-class>de.ja.sap.pack.controller.ExecutionContextFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>Execution Context Filter</filter-name> <url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> <listener> <listener-class>org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener</listener-class> </listener> <listener> <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class> </listener> <listener> <listener-class>de.ja.sap.pack.listener.InitListener</listener-class> </listener> <servlet> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>config</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <servlet> <display-name>Apache-Axis Servlet</display-name> <servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisServlet</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/servlet/AxisServlet</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>*.jws</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/services/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <servlet> <display-name>Apache-Axis Admin Servlet Web Admin</display-name> <servlet-name>AxisAdminServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisAdminServlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>100</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>AxisAdminServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/axis2-admin/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <filter> <filter-name>Navegation PACK Filter</filter-name> <filter-class>de.ja.sap.pack.web.NavegationPACKFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>Navegation PACK Filter</filter-name> <url-pattern>*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> </web-app> 2009/10/3 Caldarale, Charles R <chuck.caldar...@unisys.com> > > From: Bocalinda [mailto:bocali...@gmail.com] > > Subject: Re: Connection between ListenerStart and clustering > > > > > it turns out there are 2 libraries in my web-inf/lib > > > containing a class definition for that: > > > > > > spring-2.5.6.jar and spring-web-2.5.6.jar > > > > > > Maybe one is interfering with the other > > Is one a proper subset of the other?
