Are you referring to this entry: <classpathentry kind="src" path="/myco-oit-governor-citizen-assistanceUtility-webapp"></classpathentry>
If so, try changing it to reference: /myco-oit-governor-citizen-assistanceUtility-webapp/WEB-INF/classes Unless Maven notices it's a WAR, and transforms the classpath entry to reference the classes directory, it won't work. Maybe there is a different "kind" attribute? something like kind="war"? I tried to find the documentation for <classpathentry>, but was unsuccessful.
