查找到可能原因：
http://www.blogjava.net/apple0668/archive/2007/10/12/152383.html

原因是tomcat对硬盘的session读取失败，彻底解决办法一下：将work下面的文件清空，主要是*.ser文件，或者只是删除掉session.ser即可以解决。

异常是tomcat本身的问题，由于tomcat上次非正常关闭时有一些活动session被持久化（表现为一些临时文 件），在重启时，tomcat尝试去恢复这些session的持久化数据但又读取失败造成的。此异常不影响系统的使用。

目前尝试的是清除workspace下的项目，可行。
