应用部署上之后无法正常启动。tomcat启动日志例如以下：

開始以为是jar包冲突，删除javaee.jar包攻克了jar包冲突问题，启动依旧报错，日志信息例如以下：

这时候报错仅仅能看到和JDBC有一些关系，报错不明显。
通过下面设置能够设置对于Tomcat的追踪。生成更为具体的错误报告：
在WEB-INF/classes文件夹下新建一个文件叫logging.properties，内容例如以下：
handlers = org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
############################################################
# Handler specific properties.
# Describes specific configuration info for Handlers.
############################################################
org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = FINE
org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs
org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = error-debug.
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = FINE
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter
这样，我们再启动tomcat时，就会在logs文件夹下生成一个更具体的日志error-debug.**.log
，而且具体报错也会在应用的日志中输出出来。通过该种设置，能够看到的具体错误例如以下：
......
### Error querying database. Cause: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Table 'cdr.gg_alarm_contact_r' doesn't exist
### The error may involve defaultParameterMap
### The error occurred while setting parameters
### Cause: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Table 'cdr.gg_alarm_contact_r' doesn't exist
; bad SQL grammar []; nested exception is com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Table 'cdr.gg_alarm_contact_r' doesn't exist

at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.createBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:456)
......
能够看到真正导致Tomcat无法启动的原因是因为数据库中缺乏表cdr.gg_alarm_contact_r，又一次创建该表后应用启动正常。
总结：
Tomcat本身启动的报错可能都比較含糊，可能仅仅提示了Error listenerStart。为了调试，我们要获得更具体的日志。这时候就能够通过这样的方法进行设置。从而更有效的追踪具体的报错。
