Sorry I am new to this stack overflow stuff so pardon the long error message at the bottom.

I am trying to deploy a project called BroadLeaf to a Tomcat 7 server using eclipse. I have installed M2Eclipse/WTP Integration. I run a maven configuration (through eclipse) with clean package as the goals. Then I do a refresh and try to start the server, however, it fails.

UPDATE: I am trying to deploy the project found here... https://broadleaf.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/broadleaf/trunk/BroadleafCommerce/site/BroadleafCommerceDemo/pom.xml

Any ideas?

Can you check if the org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener is there in any of the jars. This gets specified in an XML file - so even if the class is missing you won't get compiler errors. – gkamal
Good question, the dependencies are grabbed by Maven and added to a ./target/<projectName>/WEB-INF/lib folder. This means they are all located there once it is created. I believe m2Eclipse extension for WTP should handle pointing to this folder, however, it is either not working or I am missing a setting somewhere. – Jackie
Want to let folks know that since this post Broadleaf Commerce has moved to GitHub. Docs are available on the project website at broadleafcommerce.org under getting started. – polster

The problem appears to be with WTP not integrating properly with the maven dependancies. Not the best solution I fixed the issue by....

  1. in eclipse right click on the project and go to properties
  2. Go to deployment assembly
  3. click add
  4. Select Java Build path entries
  5. select all the M2_HOME entries.
  6. Clean build and deploy project DO NOT USE THE M2ECLIPSE PLUGIN WITH ECLIPSE:ECLIPSE!
  7. Should get you around the error.

Anyone know the real solution?

UPDATE: Also the next time I imported WTP seemed to vibe with Maven, so maybe delete and reimport your project after installing the plugin?

Looking at the pom files in broadleaf source repository, it looks like none of them build a web application (war artifact). This is required for the m2eclipse/wtp integration to work correctly.

If this is not the case, please edit the question specifying the specific broadleaf sub project you are trying to deploy in tomcat.
