I am using eclipse. When I am running my maven web project with spring I got the following error:

I believe this is because the WEB-INF/lib is empty, while the dependencies should be placed by maven to that folder.
The pom file I have is as followed. Just to be clear, I do have the oracle jar file for ojdbc6 copied to my local .m2 folder.
