Based on the information you are providing, it is nearly impossible to tell you what's going on/wrong/missing/etc in your specific project.
Are your Java source files in src/main/java? When you run "mvn compile", what happens? Does it say "BUILD SUCCESSFUL" near the bottom of the output? When you look in the target directory, what kinds of files (if any) do you find? You may need to go into target/classes to see your Java class files. The free e-books linked to by Arnaud are basically considered "mandatory reading" for people posting on this list. If you have not read them yet, you should go do it now.
