Answer 1

As the error indicates, there is some problem with tomcat configuration.

1. Cross check if you have made any changes to your <IS_HOME>\repository\conf\deployment.toml wrt tomcat
2. try starting the wso2 IS after installing before making any change

you are getting this error, after any particular configuration? provide details to help.
