Tomcat发布多个项目时抛的webAppRootKey错误,  原因是部署在同一容器中的Web项目，定义了相同的webAppRootKey或者都没有定义

解决办法：需要为每个web都定义一个webAppRootKey

 <!--app1中的web.xml-->
<context-param>
    <param-name>webAppRootKey</param-name>
    <param-value>app1.root</param-value>
</context-param>
 
<!--app2中的web.xml-->
<context-param>
    <param-name>webAppRootKey</param-name>
    <param-value>app2.root</param-value>
</context-param>
