I was afraid I was going to get a reaction to my list like I did, it is a mess. You get lazy and you just enter in a dependency and let Maven drag everything in with it. As for the servlet jars, Tomcat just ignores them and I never took the time to figure out where they were coming from, that goes for the Struts jars too.
INFO [main] - validateJarFile(/Library/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/webapps/scanman/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.3.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class INFO [main] - validateJarFile(/Library/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/webapps/scanman/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.5.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class How are you suppose to know what jars you really need when you let Maven manage them ? I place just 2 dependencies in my pom.xml and 15 jars get added to my project.
