NullPointerException while deploying project on Weblogic 12.2.1

We have a JSF application that was on Weblogic 10.3.6 and that we try to deploy on Weblogic 12.2.1.
For information, we succeeded in deploying on Weblogic 12.1.3 without any changes in the project.
We are facing a NullPointerException while deploying on Weblogic 12.2.1 :

As you can see in the stacktrace, all classes involved are weblogic's classes and no class from my project.
Does anyone have an idea for this problem ?
Thanks in advance

I finally got the solution from Oracle :

Cause
The InvalidPointcutException was raised because of java.lang.ClassCastException message: "antlr.CommonToken cannot be cast to antlr.Token". The reason being the jar antlr-2.7.6.jar packaged with the ear file conflicting with the default class loader

Solution

Add the parameter -DANTLR_USE_DIRECT_CLASS_LOADING=true to last occurence of JAVA_OPTIONS in setDomainEnv.cmd file
Stop all the servers
rename tmp and cache folders under each server directory.
Restart the servers.
Deploy the application
