The first indication of problems I find is from the catalina log:

```

```

my hippo-site.log is full of:

```
16.10.2018 16:38:39 ERROR http-nio-8080-exec-3 [RewritingManager.getSession:301] Error obtaining session

...
Caused by: javax.jcr.LoginException: Failed to borrow session from the pool. javax.jcr.RepositoryException: javax.jcr.RepositoryException: No repository found at: vm://

```

However, I don’t know how to proceed from here. Any suggestions?

Hi,  
The site errors are the result of the CMS not starting, so please focus on this part:  
`Unable to complete the scan for annotations for web application [/cms] due to a StackOverflowError. The class hierarchy being processed was [org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Boolean->org.bouncycastle.asn1.DERBoolean->org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Boolean]`

Is there anything you customized in the CMS with annotations?  
HTH

found 2 version of bcprov-\* got pulled in, so I was able to exclude the old version and resolve the issue. I just didn’t recognize the log message as a dependency conflict.
