I have a maven web app build using Eclipse, and have this command: install tomcat:deploy set in the goal. When I build the app, I hit this error:
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.
