Hi, I'm trying to follow the tutorial mentioned in subject at:
http://struts.apache.org/release/2.3.x/docs/struts-2-spring-2-jpa-ajax.html I got it to build the war OK so far for: Struts 2.3.16 Spring 3.0.5.RELEASE Hibernate 4.3.2.FINAL Log4j 2.0-RC1 But when I run it on Tomcat 7.0.50 server via Eclipse Kepler, I got an error: Feb 28, 2014 11:01:09 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext listenerStart SEVERE: Error configuring application listener of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1702) at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1547) at org.apache.catalina.core.DefaultInstanceManager.loadClass(DefaultInstanceManager.java:532) at org.apache.catalina.core.DefaultInstanceManager.loadClassMaybePrivileged(DefaultInstanceManager.java:514) at org.apache.catalina.core.DefaultInstanceManager.newInstance(DefaultInstanceManager.java:142) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.listenerStart(StandardContext.java:4876) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.startInternal(StandardContext.java:5455) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase.start(LifecycleBase.java:150) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase$StartChild.call(ContainerBase.java:1559) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase$StartChild.call(ContainerBase.java:1549) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:262) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1145) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:615) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:744) Could someone please tell me why I'm getting the above error even though needed jar containing the class is in WEB-INF/lib built within the war? I'm sure I've correctly defined the dependencies in pom.xml [1] and configured the web.xml [2]. Full project is on github [3].
