```

there is no problem before, but now this error happens.  
however if I restart tomcat, and re-deploy, it can be success.

how can I debug and solve this problem?

This looks similar to [JENKINS-10320](https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-10320), maybe some answers in this issue can help you?
