While migrating from 6.3 to 1811, we are facing server start up issue.

We are getting the below error during server startup::

SEVERE: Class loader creation threw exception java.io.IOException: Bad pathname at java.io.WinNTFileSystem.canonicalize0(Native Method) at java.io.WinNTFileSystem.canonicalize(Unknown Source) at java.io.File.getCanonicalPath(Unknown Source) at java.io.File.getCanonicalFile(Unknown Source) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ClassLoaderFactory.createClassLoader(ClassLoaderFactory.java:174) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.createClassLoader(Bootstrap.java:139) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.initClassLoaders(Bootstrap.java:80) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.init(Bootstrap.java:199) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:398) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.tanukisoftware.wrapper.WrapperSimpleApp.run(WrapperSimpleApp.java:325) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

Hi - this issue is related to Tomcat. You can get some hints from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26143894/tomcat-8-0-64-bit-server-not-starting-and-getting-error... to deal with it. However, looking at your other question, I would suggest you fix referencing Tomcat 7.5 first and hopefully, this error will be solved without doing anything else.
