Error deploying roller.war tomcat7

Hello,

I have build the latest roller-5.1-SNAPSHOT successfully and have tried 
deploying it to tomcat7 and jetty.

Before this also, during build of code I got some problem like we must 
have maven version more greater  than 3.0.5. After build I tried running 
on jetty server, but then again jetty gave error due to jdk version. As 
jdk 1.7 is needed for that. But still I was not able to successfully 
deploy on jetty as did not able to find and documentation for setting up 
of database and other things. jetty was successfully started but when I 
mount roller app it gave me 404.

At last I switched to tomcat7, then again I have followed the roller 
installation guide for tomcat, but still having this error.

I have added this line 
(*log4j.appender.roller-startup.File=/var/log/tomcat7/roller-startup.log*) 
in roller-custom.properties but still the same issue.
