We are having the same problem here with EARs and skinny WARs. It's been a while since I last looked what the problem is but our problem is definitely related to the skinny WAR problem [0] and your's might be too. The workaround we are using is to run "mvn install" whenever such a problem occurs. > I'm not sure but it seemed to me there is something wrong in my > dependencies...but i'm not sure where to search for.... Try running mvn -X to see where your dependencies come from. Search the output for "selected for runtime" and "from the repository". This might lead you on the right track. hth, - martin [0] http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/Solving+the+Skinny+Wars+problem
