Tomcat start service NoClassDefFoundError

I am trying to redeploy my server on a new server with a different DNS and IP address. Therefore, I think my problem is in the configuration to find JAR files. Is there a way to get more detail as to which class is being requested so I can narrow down my problem.

Does anyone have any suggested troubleshooting guidance for such problem?

BTW – the configuration was working on the original server, and I tried to find all the locations in the files: conf/, worker.properties, server.xml, catalina.policy, web.xml.

The jarkarta.log repeats the starting… error initializing … forever. Very boring, therefore, the problem has to be fundamental.

Apparently, the error message is recorded in the log across more than one line and would be this:
