I don't have much idea of what you could this.

You don't have any other error before this one ? Maybe try to enable a bit more log in Tomcat (see the log setup suggested in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationTomcat#HSEV…). On Tue, Dec 13, 2016 at 12:21 PM, KirbY ZhoU <kirbyzhou(a)gmail.com> wrote: -- Thomas Mortagne
