Cause
This can be caused by clashes in libraries we ship with JIRA with applications you currently have deployed in the same application server.
Resolution
Inspect your Application Server and see if there is any other xstream*.jar file being loaded in lieu of JIRA's. If so, remove it from the shared library classpath folder.
