I’m just trying to set a simple spring mvc project (that’s using maven) in eclipse but can’t seem to. I’m getting the following exception:

I’ve come across a number of solutions suggested to others for this problem but none seem to work.

I have spring-mvc in my pom and it’s in Maven Dependecies.

My web.xml looks like:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" 
xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
  <display-name>BetPicker</display-name>

  <!-- Processes application requests -->
  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>betpicker</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
        <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
        <param-value>/WEB-INF/spring/appServlet/servlet-context.xml</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
  </servlet>

  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>betpicker</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

 </web-app>

My servlet-context.xml looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
xsi:schemaLocation="
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.0.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">

<!-- DispatcherServlet Context: defines this servlet's request-processing infrastructure -->

<!-- Scans within the base package of the application for @Components to configure as beans -->
<!-- @Controller, @Service, @Configuration, etc. -->
<context:component-scan base-package="org.rory.betpicker" />

<!-- Enables the Spring MVC @Controller programming model -->
<mvc:annotation-driven />

I’m at a bit of a loss at the moment. Any help appreciated.

Thanks

    Spring Jars are not being resolved at runtime by your server. Please check your WEB-INF/lib to see if the jars are available.
