I am developing a web application with Eclipse and I generate the project with a maven archetype.
When I enable maven dependency management, Eclipse mark some errors
It must be a configuration problem. Your pom is fine.
Here's what I did. New folder, put your pom inside. Then in eclipse: import -> maven -> existing maven project. Dependencies got included in the project.
I did this using eclipse helios. I think the plugin version I am using is 0.12
You should check the maven properties in eclipse.
