java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/io/output/DeferredFileOutputStream

It is just telling you that the mentioned class is missing in the runtime classpath. As the package name hints, it's part of Apache Commons IO. You can download it from http://commons.apache.org/io. Extract the downloaded zip, put the JAR file in /WEB-INF/lib, rebuild/redeploy/restart the webapp/server and this error should disappear.
