After updating the Cloud Agent to version 1.0.354, it will not start when the Tomcat for the Cloud Agent is started.

In the Catalina.out file you see the error message:

SEVERE [localhost-startStop-2] org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.startInternal Context [/C4A_AGENT] startup failed due to previous errors

and in the localhost.<Date Stamp>.log file you see the error
