m2eclipse

I am starting to configure my development environment and I am using Spring Tool Suite 2.8.1 along with m2E 1.01. As far as I can tell, since this is a Maven Project (my first), my Maven POM is dictating (along with m2E smarts) my project build configuration and dependencies. What I would like to know is why my IDE is displaying Java Build Problems that read "Archive required for library library/path/somejar.jar cannot be read or is not a valid zip file" when I can see the jars in my .m2 repository? All the errors pertained to commons-logging:1.1.1 which I excluded in my parent-pom. This was a

Consider: When I create a simple Maven project in Eclipse I am getting this error: web.xml is missing and <failOnMissingWebXml> is set to true How can I fix this problem? Wojciechu You can do it also like this: Right click on Deployment Descriptor in Project Explorer . Select Generate Deployment Descriptor Stub . It will generate WEB-INF folder in src/main/webapp and an web.xml in it. This is a maven error. It says that it is expecting a web.xml file in your project because it is a web application, as indicated by <packaging>war</packaging> . However, for recent web applications a web.xml file

I would like to take advantage of the features that Maven provides for managing dependencies in a project. My brief understanding of how Maven works is that it will aquire the JARs needed and then build the project with these libraries. Currently I have a simple POM file set up as a test: <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.jamesgoodwin.test</groupId> <artifactId>com.jamesgoodwin

I'm trying to create a very simple webapp with maven and eclipse, but I'm having no joy at all, in fact the reverse of joy. I go to File -> New Project, select Maven Project, and select the maven-archetype-webapp. When I finish the wizard, a webapp structure gets generated but with no 'java' directory under main, just resources and webapp. So I right click on main and select new Class. The class gets created under resources (?!), and furthermore, there seems to be no compilation of it by java. I can make stupid errors and no syntax highlighting comes up. It's like java isn't recognizing it.
