Problem launching in live enviroment

Hello!

I have some problems with getting my app to run in the live environment. I
have packed the application in a war-file and placed it in the webapps
folder where it self-extracts.

When I try to access the application from my browser, it prints out this
error:

If I check Catalina out I find this:

The file that is supposed to be accessed did not exist from the beginning
and I find no reference for it. I did create one but there is no change. I
also find the classes folder t be a strange place to put it in.

 

I can also add that a print I performed in the init-method of one of my
services. When I try to access the app, the print is performed so in some
way my app is started.

 

Does anyone know what the problem is?
