Deployment issues on Tomcat - deployment

Question

I am unable to deploy grails war in tomcat .
Copied all 55 jars to $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib/grails-jars/
Added shared.loader= ${catalina.home}/shared/lib/grails-jars/*.jar
And started tomcat successfully. Now deployed grails war in deploy folder (war is ~572.4KB).
The console shows these errors :
log4j:ERROR Could not instantiate appender named "CONSOLE".

Sounds like this might be a Hibernate version problem, as described here.
