Unfortunately : > SEVERE: Error filterStart is very unfriendly - we have 
several filters...

If you change your Tomcat conf/logging.properties file so that:

org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost].level = FINE

rather than INFO, and restart Tomcat you should get some debug info - I get 
it in my localhost log:

FINE: Starting filters
29-Oct-2010 14:35:47 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext filterStart
FINE:  Starting filter 'CAS Filter'

etc. That may help us work out which filter is failing though I'm not quite 
sure why the Exception which is presumably thrown is not being logged.
