HTTP Status 500 - Servlet.init() on deployment, what's wrong?

Question

Spring

When deploying, I get the following error with status 500:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The resource path [/../webapp/WEB-INF/spring/appServlet/servlet-context.xml] has been normalized to [null] which is not valid

For what reason could this happen? Did I misconfigure servlet-context?
As I understand it, the file did not pass validation.
