  1. When you try to manually export Bamboo it fails with the above errors
  2. Scheduled backup of the instance also fails with the above errors

Cause

This is because you are using an unsupported version of Tomcat

Resolution

Run your Tomcat with

export JAVA_OPTS='-Datlassian.org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=javax.servlet,javax.servlet.*,sun.*,com.sun.*,org.w3c.dom.*'

or downgrade your tomcat to version 6.0.x. Please review the Supported platforms page for more details.

Note, there is a Bamboo bug report for the incompatibility  BAM-12016 - Getting issue details... STATUS
