ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.jetty.util.component.AbstractLifeCycle running inside jetty

Question

I am having an issue running a servlet in jetty on Ubuntu 13.04. The server is installed using apt-get and started using sudo service jetty start.

Answer 1

Joakim Erdfelt pointed the cause, in case anyone needs a snip of pom code, put this in pom file:

  org.eclipse.jetty
  jetty-util
  9.3.6.v20151106
