I\'m a beginner and learning spring and hibernate (utilizing maven in project)and came across this problem and got stuck here. tried finding solution but ended up no where.

I faced the same error. Adding the tomcat server in the runtime environment will solve the error:

Right click on your project -> Properties -> Targeted runtimes -> Select apache tomcat server -> click apply -> click ok.
