Question

Consider:

When I create a simple Maven project in Eclipse I am getting this ERROR:

How can I fix this problem?

Answer 1

You can also use the following method:

1. Right click on Deployment Descriptor in Project Explorer.

2. Select Generate Deployment Descriptor Stub.

It will generate a WEB-INF folder in src/main/webapp and a web.xml in it.
