You can try adding the asm.jar to your Applications's WEB-INF/lib directory. From the error it's clear that JVM not able to locate the class, hence java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

I added required jsse.jar (which is the Java`s standard jar) to my application libs as well, but still the issue persists. I doubt now that the jsse.jar in jre is corrupt which is causing this issue. I am using jre 1.6.0_13.
Can someone help me solving this error?

That class in particular is a standard class provided by the JVM. Check that the JVM installation isn't corrupted, missing files, etc.

Copy commons-logging.jar to your /WEB-INF/lib dir
Regarding to your link:
For deploying and running Stripes you
will also need to copy the following
library files supplied with Stripes
into your classpath:
* commons-logging.jar (1.1)

Usually issues like this are caused by either an incorrect web.xml file, or by a required JAR file not being on the classpath.
If you check Tomcat's log directory (should be under CATALINA_HOME/logs) you should find some log files named '<hostname>.<date>.log' (for instance, "localhost.2011-03-18.log"). In the current log file you will likely be able to find a stacktrace that will provide a lot more detail about the exact cause of the error.

Thanks for your answer!

By default, the Tomcat that ships with Debian distros has a very restrictive Java security manager. My guess is that you're using the packaged version and that it is forbidding something. The "something" is very likely available in the logs as mentioned in the last line of the trace you posted:
note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/5.5 logs.
You'll have to ease the restrictions (check /etc/tomcat5.5/policy.d) or to turn it off. Talk with your administrator.

I have seen something very similar with a jar requiring a class from another jar and that jar was not on the classpath.
Have a look at the root cause of the stack trace in the Tomcat log. That will most likely reveal what is wrong.
