原因
看日志以为是“com.xxx.xxx.xxxxxxx”类加载异常，其实这个只是现象，不不是真正引起问题的原因。
看这个真正的异常原因需要看tomcat/logs/localhost.年-月-日.log的文件，这个文件中会描述正真的错误原因。
tomcat/logs/localhost.年-月-日.log`的文件

从日志文件可以看出是说Web应用程序根系统属性已经被设置，'webapp.root' 这个配置名称已经被使用，提示了Choose unique values for the 'webAppRootKey' context-param in your web.xml files ，也就是说在web.xml里配置一个唯一的'webAppRootKey' ，这样就不会发生冲突。
解决办法
在web.xml指定webAppRootKey
<context-param>
<param-name>webAppRootKey</param-name>
<param-value>myapp.root</param-value>
</context-param>
