1. Your exact version of Tomcat x.y.z =? 2. Your OS = ? 3. Do you think that you are running with Java's SecurityManager enabled? [1] 4. Is there anything else in the logs? I thing that the "Could not initialize class" message means that the class is found, but its initialization failed. I wonder though why it is not an instance of ExceptionInInitializerError.
