Exception in thread "net.sf.ehcache.CacheManage"

[Alaa Abu Zaghleh]

Hi EHCache Team ,

bellow my maven dependency for one of the project I recently work on when I deploy the application to Tomcat 7.0.57 , and start the application server i got the following exception 

I already have the log4j in the classpath and I make sure that the spi package contain ThrowableInformation.class also my tomcat\lib us default, so there is no log4j.jar in it. I try do the following delete the log4j from the application lib folder and put it in Tomcat\lib and make the dependency scope to provider but i still getting the same exception. 

any help from you will be appreciated.

Could it be your web application isn't shutting the CacheManager down?

It looks like the CacheManager is still doing work, while the application is already undeployed from Tomcat's perspective...
