War file being deployed to Tomcat but unable to start it - jenkins

Question

I am trying to deploy an application to Tomcat using Jenkins.
Altough I get a failed build because the context couldn't be started, If I go to Tomcat's webapps folder my war file is indeed there.
I tried to start my context by clicking in the start button but I get the error FAIL - Application at context path [/sequencial_pipeline] could not be started.
I also tried to access it by URL and I get a 404-Not found error as it is possible to see in image below
The complete error that I get in Jenkins console output is the following

What can be causing this? Is this a permissions problem? From what I can see from the log the deploy is indeed made but for some reason the context can't be started.
This is how I am making the deploy in my declarative pipeline
stage('Deploy war to Tomcat on Windows') {
when { expression { env.OS == 'BAT' }}
steps {
deploy adapters: [tomcat9(credentialsId: '2b0c1cc1-d25f-4ed7-b04c-7f692109e59a', path: '', url: 'http://localhost:8888/')], contextPath: 'sequencial_pipeline', onFailure: false, war: '*/.war'
//deploy adapters: [tomcat9(credentialsId: 'tomcat-credential-id', path: '', url: 'http://localhost:8888')], contextPath: 'sequencial_pipeline', onFailure: false, war: '*/.war'
}
}
