Tomcat启动报错LifecycleException: Failed to start component..and illegal cyclic inheritance dependencies
一、报错信息:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: ContainerBase.addChild: start: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[]]

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to complete the scan for annotations for web application [] due to a StackOverflowError. Possible root causes include a too low setting for -Xss and illegal cyclic inheritance dependencies. The class hierarchy being processed was [org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Boolean->org.bouncycastle.asn1.DERBoolean->org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Boolean]

.......
问题出现的原因，如红色部分所示， 是Jar包间出现了环状继承关系，主要涉及的包：
二、解决方法
方法一: 修改TOMCAT配置
在Tomcat（Tomcat7）配置文件/conf/catalina.properties中
将(约122行)
org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.jarsToSkip=
后添加 *.jar
改为:
org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.jarsToSkip=*.jar
前面所说的解决方式是修改TOMCAT配置，使其启动时不扫描这几个包，不同版本TOMCAT配置的地方略有不同
（本人电脑中的tomcat8.0.53如图所示）
方法二: 排除其中的一个Jar包
在项目中找到引入该Jar包的依赖，排除即可
