SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further detail

But it is working in jetty. Can anybody tell me what’s the reason?
Thanks.

This seems to be the same issue as this one: Tomcat 7 – Servlet 3.0: Invalid byte tag in constant pool (an old version of com.ibm.icu:icu4j).
