> CXFServlet.java line 136 obtains the Spring application context from the servlet context:
>         if (ctx == null) {
>             ctx = (ApplicationContext)svCtx
>                 .getAttribute("org.springframework.web.context.WebApplicationContext.ROOT");
>         }
> If the Spring application context failed to load however, Spring (somewhat inexplicably) sets this attribute to be the exception rather than the context.  See org/springframework/web/context/ContextLoader.java line 202:
> 		catch (RuntimeException ex) {
> 			logger.error("Context initialization failed", ex);
> 			servletContext.setAttribute(WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE, ex);
> 			throw ex;
>                                            }
> To avoid repeated ClassCastExceptions that obscure the underlying problem with the Spring application context, CXFServlet should check the type of the attribute before attempting to cast to ApplicationContext:
>         if (ctx == null) {
>             Object ctxObject = svCtx
>                 .getAttribute("org.springframework.web.context.WebApplicationContext.ROOT");
>             if (ctxObject instanceof ApplicationContext) {
> 	      ctx = (ApplicationContext) ctxObject;
> 	    }
>         }
