Well, I discovered the cause of the bug, and I can now stop it from
happening, but I'm unable to *fix* the problem. The top logging statement
works properly, while the commented one does not.
The NullPointer on the date occurs because a date is not being sent to the
logger when the context is reloaded. The date is sent on a startup. Tomcat
can survive this error during reload. The other error
(NoClassDefFoundError:VectorWriter) is an issue with the line number being
sent to the logger, which causes the reload to completely fail.
log4j.appender.ap.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n
#log4j.appender.ap.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} %5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n
Log output:
Initial Load:

An empty docBase path is rather odd. The appBase parameter is supposed
to point to the directory under which one or more application
directories or war files are stored; docBase should specify the
directory or war for the given application. Perhaps you should try
setting appBase to "C:\web" and docBase to "application".

Not at the same time, I hope.
