I want to learn some basics of Spring MVC based fully on annotations. I started with this tutorial.
After cloning the repository
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/arnelism/snoutbook
and building the war file
mvn package
I am deploying the app by simply copying the war file to the webapps directory of my Apache Tomcat 7.0.12 instance. I am stopping and starting the server.

Unfortunately after this operation I am receiving the error 404 by displaying the page.
http://localhost:8080/Snoutbook-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/
I have been looking for a solution for over 2 hours and have not been able to find the cause. Did somebody have a similar issue?
EDIT
I tried with the newest Tomcat version apache-tomcat-8.0.12. The problem persists. There is however more info printed in the console while deploying the web app.
