I prefer Jetty to run my application. I'm always amazed at how tortured people's setups are.
It's really simple: Create a project (using Maven, or otherwise). Use the RunJettyRun Eclipse plugin. Make sure you are NOT compiling to src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes (compile to target/classes or something) Make sure your libraries are NOT in src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib (they won't be if you are using Maven/Gradle/etc.) (The above two resolve potential class resolution problems where classes are loaded by the wrong class loader). Start RunJettyRun targetted at src/main/webapp You're done!
