I used Spring Roo for a small, public web application recently, and all went well until I attempted to deploy it on a hosted VPS.
The application didn't deploy, and I got the dreaded error message:

It's near the end of day three here at SpringOne Americas, and it got off to a hilarious start.
Apparently having lost a serious bet, SpringSource's Arjen Poutsma showed up at breakfast with a white suit, bright green sneakers, and bright green hair. Very Spring-y!
