I am dealing with this problem here. I am using IntelliJ Community Edition and Tomcat 7.
I have set the project SDK to 1.7 and also the module SDK to 1.7.
Spring version is 4.1.6.RELEASE (and it must not be changed).
When I deploy the war file to tomcat I am getting:
ERROR [http-bio-8080-exec-15] ContextLoader:215 - Context initialization failed
