原因：
将webapps下的项目trunk删除了，但是server.xml文件中的配置为删除，所以报上述错误。
server.xml

......
<Host appBase="webapps" autoDeploy="true" name="localhost" unpackWARs="true" xmlNamespaceAware="false" xmlValidation="false">

        <!-- SingleSignOn valve, share authentication between web applications
             Documentation at: /docs/config/valve.html -->
        <!--
        <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.authenticator.SingleSignOn" />
        -->

        <!-- Access log processes all example.
             Documentation at: /docs/config/valve.html -->
        <!--
        <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="logs"  
               prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt" pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>
        -->

      <Context docBase="trunk" path="/trunk" reloadable="true" source="org.eclipse.jst.jee.server:trunk"/>
</Host>
......

解决办法：
将server.xml文件中的

<Context docBase="trunk" path="/trunk" reloadable="true" source="org.eclipse.jst.jee.server:trunk"/>

删除。
