I have a spring boot application that works fine when I run it using the embedded server from Intellj. However, when I package it into .war file and deploy it on tomcat I get the following error:
org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/file-upload-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT]]

My project does not contain multiple web-fragment so I don't know what could be causing this problem.

Sounds like you have two different versions of Spring, check your dependencies to see if you have a dependency to another Spring-version.
This problem was solved by adding absolute ordering of deployment descriptors.
The tag
<absolute-ordering/>
was added to the web.xmlReference:
https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/javaee/javaee6overview-part2-136353.html
I am using spring 5.1.8 and apache tomcat 8.5 version. In my
web.xml
file i have added the add<absolute-ordering />
right after the<display-name>
tag and this worked for me.
