The system cannot find the path specified (MANIFEST.MF)

I get the following Tomcat error:
'Publishing to Tomcat v8.5 Server at localhost...' has encountered a problem.
Publishing failed with multiple errors.
Details:

I am using Eclipse Oxygen. I have deployed others projects on the same Tomcat server (8.5.31). The setup is the same.
So far, I have tried:
Doing a Maven->Update project.
Cleaning the Tomcat server.
Cleaning the project.
Closing and starting Eclipse.
Refreshing the project.
Refreshing the target directory.
Disabling Maven Nature and converting to maven project again.
Any of the above solutions I found works for me.
This is what appears in my console.

I removed the content of my repository folder and it worked. It seems the main problem is any corrupted jar.
The following question helped:
Deploying Maven project throws java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header (bad signature)

if you take a deep breath and trace through the exception, you can clearly see that it states what has gone wrong.
The servlets named [controller.FP_CompanyRegistrationController] and
[controller.FP_UserRegistrationController] are both mapped to the
url-pattern [/FP_UserRegistrationController] which is not permitted
it seems that you have two servlets mapped to the same url-pattern.

Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[]]

I've jared my latest classes up and included it in my WEB-INF/lib directory and since then I've been getting this error and cannot run my project.
I have tried adding the commons jar into my project also but I'm still getting this issue. If I revert my project back to the original jar I created before adding new classes it works no problem.
Here is the error I'm getting:

It looks like you added a dependency on a Paypal library but did not include that library in your project:
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.paypal.exception.SSLConfigurationException
I'm not sure which jar, but it is most likely paypal-core.jar. Try adding it under WEB-INF/lib.

I had met a similar problem, after i
add a scope property of servlet dependency in pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
Then it was ok .
maybe that will help you.

Just go to the project Properties->Project Facets
Uncheck the dynamic module, click apply.
Maven->update the project.

In my maven project this error occurs, after i closed my projects and reopens them. The dependencys wasn´t build correctly at that time. So for me the solution was just to update the Maven Dependencies of the projects!

Tomcat7 from Eclipse Server Timeout

I'm running tomcat7 form Eclipse and have also ensured that both Eclipse and Tomcat are using jdk-1.7.0. The server says "timeout. Server took more than 45 seconds to boot".
The error started occuring when I changed the JDK for my project in eclipse but I changed it to the same JDK in the run configurations as well.
PS: When I boot tomcat7 from outside of eclipse via the terminal, it works fine but when I try booting it form inside of Eclipse, it throws the error.
The complete error is as follows
A child container failed during start
java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/cure]]

If migration to another JDK was the only change and project runs at standalone Tomcat, then problem is that your Eclipse/project JRE version is differs from the Tomcat JRE version.
It should be the same.
Edit (after question update):
Please look at this question. There are shouldn't be any redundant libraries in Tomcat classpath.
Also ensure that you didn't touch any servlet-specific libraries, which should be placed at Tomcat/lib and only there (not moved or copied).
Also all your 3rdparty libraries should be placed at /WEB-INF/lib of your webapp, not elsewhere.

Run query cypher on tomcat, error with Scala library

I'm tring to run a query with cypher in a web app(REST) with tomcat.
This code works correctly in a normal java application, but if I run it on the web app with tomcat it returns this error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: scala/ScalaObject
if I add a scala-library.jar into project when I deploy on tomcat it return an error "OutOfMemory". Searching on the web, I have increased my JAVA_OPTS from 512M to 2048M but nothing.
This is my code to execute my query:
ExecutionEngine engine = new ExecutionEngine( graphDb );
ExecutionResult result = engine.execute( query );
It looks like the ExecuteEngine makes use of Scala library and this library conflicts with tomcat.
Any suggestions?
EDIT:
(full stack OOME)

The noclassdeffound is due to the missing Scala library so adding it to web-inf/lib is correct. Adding a library to the classpath won't lead to out of memory errors though, so it seems to be related to your app.
What is the class ExecutionEngine? What's the stacktrace (although that won't necessarily help). Are you sure your webapp is doing the same as your java app which has no problems? How are you testing your webapp? Could it simply be that many concurrent threads (requests) cause the OOME, but one thread works fine (like the plain java app)?
