Deploying infinispan-rest-server.war in Tomcat 6.0.26 fails

Deploying rest server in Tomcat 6.0.26 throws the exception below.

It seems like that it can't find slf4j-api jar. Michael, did you try the war with any particular tomcat versions?

I managed to get around the issue by both removing the exclusion in the RESTEasy depends and adding slf4j-api and slf4j-simple dependencies.
