Cause
The previous version's web.xml file was copied manually. With new versions of Confluence the web.xml will be updated with new spring contexts.
If you copy an old version of the web.xml file, it will be missing these contexts and you would get the above error.
Resolution
If you have customized your web.xml, instead of replacing the web.xml, edit the default web.xml and apply your customizations to the new install's default web.xml file.
