Cloudfoundry + SpringData + MongoDB...can't deploy

Question

I have a simple project based on Spring Data and MongoDB. When I deploy this project to the cloud with the following Spring context:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

It fails with:

Stopping Tomcat because the context stopped.

It was working one month ago. What's changed in API?

Thanks

Your issue seem to be the runtime jar. Please try to use the latest cloudfoundry-runtime.
