I'm an old user of GAE, but recently, after some updates of my OS X to Mavericks DP4 and Java SDK(1.6, 1.7, 1.8) and Goolge App Engine SDK(1.8.1, 1.8.2), I cannot start my GAE application again, and the stack trace seems completely confusing, do you know why? It works completely fine on my local machine, but once deployed to the hosting platform, it cannot be started, every request results into the following stack trace, the project is configured as 1. use JDK1.7 (Also, I have tried 1.6) 2. use SDK1.8.2 (also tried 1.8.1, no luck)
