I have been fighting with this for a while now. In short, I cannot deploy a project that had previously always worked to my local Tomcat server. I can deploy it to a DEV server, but that does not allow me to debug the project as I would like. This project does run locally properly on other people's machines, so my best guess is that it is my local configuration / environment.
More background: We store the project in SVN, so I download the project via the SVN plugin. This is a project which includes Spring, although that is legacy code that has not been modified in years. Normally upon Tomcat startup I see the Spring configuration load and configure properly. I have googled many solutions and here are the ones I have tried:
reinstalling Eclipse - I downloaded and installed Eclipse Oxygen. No different.
deleting project .settings and .project folder - Before doing this, I exited Eclipse. Upon starting up Eclipse, it simply created those folders from the repository. No dice. Also deleted these without exiting Eclipse, also same result.
deleting .metadata folder in workspace folder - Needed to exit Eclipse first before deleting, but same result upon re-entry. I was optimistic about that one because the person had the same stack trace (or close enough) that I did, but didn't work.
Now I am really stuck. I can work around this for a time, but I will eventually need to resolve this. I am not a newbie with Eclipse, although I am sure I use it in a limited way.
I have full backups of my workspaces and environments, so any suggestions are welcome. Stack trace and session data are at the bottom.
the stack trace:
