Invalid memory access of location Java - AWT-AppKit Thread - launching Web Application

Question

my configuration:

• Mac OS X 10.8.4
• Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7
• Memory 8GB
• JDK 1.6.0_38-b04-436.jdk

I think, but I am not sure, this error started to show up after a App Store Java Update...

When I launch my web application, I keep getting this error:

2013-07-09 14:13:41.831 java[588:707] NSSoftLinking - The Librarian framework's library couldn't be loaded from (null).
2013-07-09 14:13:41.832 java[588:707] NSSoftLinking - The function 'LBCurrentProcessHasUbiquityContainer' can't be found in the Librarian framework.

Also, the problem reported show up with some content:

The report will be send to Apple automatically.

• I tried a different version of my web server, Tomcat 5, Tomcat 6.

• I tried resting the PRAM memory. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379

Did not solve the problem.

Anybody has a clue?

Thanks

I just deleted all Java directories in my Mac and install a previous version of Java and it is working again.

I fixed this by installing the latest jdk 7 and then pointing to it in catalina.sh :

JRE_HOME="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_25.jdk/Contents/Home"
