Cannot build circuits because we don't have enough directory information I'm developing a bitcoin wallet app using BitcoinJ framework. While deploying the app using Tomcat 8, I get the following stack of errors,

The last 2 lines of the stack,

I believe Tomcat deployment is fine and one of the errors is crucial informing -com.subgraph.orchid.circuits.CircuitCreationTask.checkCircuitsForCreation Cannot build circuits because we don't have enough directory information

I use maven as the build tool and get the RELEASE version of the BitcoinJ as dependency in the project.

&lt;dependency&gt;
    &lt;groupId&gt;org.bitcoinj&lt;/groupId&gt;
    &lt;artifactId&gt;bitcoinj-core&lt;/artifactId&gt;
    &lt;version&gt;RELEASE&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;


I recently loaded RAM in the system and upgraded to the OS Sierra. I had the surprise, I couldn't use maven from the terminal afterwards and set that up manually. Current Maven information, 

$ mvn -version

How to approach to the problem properly ?
Solved by itself. I guess the info Localhost peer not detected was behind the scene. Now, after finding the peers I have the app synchronized to the blockchain
