I've created a Maven project in Eclipse. From "project facets" menu I selected Dynamic Web Module, Java and Java Server Faces. Added some dependencies from pom.xml successfully like jsf-api and servlet-api. Then I wrote a simple Java bean and an xhtml page that uses the bean.
When I build war file with "maven clean install" and deploy it to Tomcat manually, it works as expected. But when I select "Run on Server" from Eclipse it gives the following error:

It seems jsf libraries are not linked as expected when it is run from Eclipse. Do you have any idea about the cause of this behaviour?
In "Project Properties" -> "Deployment Assembly", adding "Java Build Path Entries -> Maven Dependencies" solves the problem!

If I deploy the war file manual to tomcat it works without problems.
The war file has the necessary jars in the lib folder.
Can some give me a solution for this, please?
Solve it with Right click on Project properties -> Deployment Assembly -> Add (button) -> Java Build Path Entries (select) -> Maven dependencies (select and click on finish)
Jars not copied to Tomcat's lib folder
Eclipse: Juno (3.8.0)
M2E build: 1.2.0.20120903-1050
When I try to right click on a Maven Project and select Maven > Update Project... and then click OK , I get the following showstopping error:

This one is straight from the box - so it must be fundamentally broken? This error presents the following exception:

I have come across the same error.
When I first created the maven project using m2e, the maven installation was configured to my local apache-maven-3.0.3 folder.
Recently I switched ide to spring tool suite, which has apache-maven-3.0.4 bundled. So I use 3.0.4 instead, then the error "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Lorg/codehaus/plexus/archiver/jar/JarArchiver;" appears. Now I get the configuration back to previous version of maven, the error disappears.
I'm using m2e 1.2.0 without problems, so it must be a local problem on your PC. Try:
Try restarting Eclipse
A colleague had a similar problem yesterday on a Linux machine. To my surprise, a reboot fixed it.
Make sure that the JAR files in ~/.m2/repository/org/codehaus/plexus/plexus-archiver/ aren't corrupt.
When you do the last step, make sure you look in the correct repository. It's possible to configure the two Maven's (Eclipse's and the one on the command line) differently. Check the "Maven" preferences in Eclipse for the paths of the settings files.
I am trying to deploy maven generated war file into tomcat server in eclipse.. but I get java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError on a jar file. I verified multiple times, jar is in .war and corresponding class file is also available in jar.
I can copy the war from generated location in eclipse and deploy into webapps of tomcat (using the same server as installed server in eclipse) successfully.
I am not sure what else to check in configuration apart from deployment assembly (which has jar listed) and Java Build path ( jar is available in Maven Dependencies). I am using JRE --> Alternate JRE pointing to JDK 1.6

Please advise.
Using server instance is not same as deploying WAR in tomcat. The servers view integration of tomcat 'hot' deploys the source folder. I suggest you check you Java Build path settings because those are used when you 'deploy' the source project into the server in servers view. How are you creating the war? I am assuming you are using maven for it.. If you are using maven (I have personal dislike for it), it should be managing the dependencies for you. You might have to replicate settings of maven in java or may be use maven plugin for eclipse. [http://www.eclipse.org/m2e/]
i always get the following error when trying to start Tomcat in eclipse (or also from the terminal with this specific war file)the build using ant is successful of course:

It runs perfectly on a pc using linux and eclipse galileo, but not on my mac using eclipse indigo. the libraries are all in place..does anyone have an idea what the problem might be?
Looks like I syncyronisation problem I often have.
Refresh the Workspace
Project Build (most time not needed) - But make sure that there are no build errors
Then run the two tasks from the Servers/(tomcat) Context menu
Clean...
Clean Tomcat Working Directory
If this all does not help, then Remove the application from the Server, clean the Server and Deploy the application again to the server.
The class StxxDelegatingRequestProcessor is missing in your classpath -> "ClassNotFoundException: dea.alo.aloWeb.spring.StxxDelegatingRequestProcessor"
I think you copied the struts conf from a site but not the class :)

This class is inside maven jar (from M2 repository). I added Maven Dependencies to DeploymentAssembly (before I did it i got: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.web.filter.CharacterEncodingFilter). I use m2e plugin and have my project configured as Maven project. My app is deployed to standard location /.metadata/.plugins/.../tmp0. Inside of WEB-INF/lib I have all necessary jars. Project compiles with no error. What could I do wrong?
One quasi-solution is to add necessary libraries to Tomcat lib directory but I don't want to do that. I want to force Tomcat to use project libraries.
I have had a similar issue when trying to run the mcv-ajax and mvc-basic samples, distributed with Spring 3 (both available at https://src.springframework.org/svn/spring-samples - need an SVN client to download them, something like TortoiseSVN).
I was getting this ClassNotFoundException in my Tomcat6 startup log.

I could run both Maven Clean and Maven Install goals, with no errors, and the project did not have any classpath errors.
I also installed the eclipse Maven Integration for WTP available under the Maven Integration for Eclipse Extras package, as instructed here, but still no luck...
The problem in my case, could be seen in the Markers tab in Eclipse, as a warning (yellow eclamation mark) with a description of Classpath Dependency validator Message
and an actual issue of classpath entry org.eclipse.maven2_classpath.container will not be exported or published. Runtime ClassNotFoundExceptions may result.
To solve this issue
right-click on the problem description, and selected quick fix.
Select Mark the associated raw classpath entry as a publish/export dependency
Click on Finish
Do a maven-clean and a maven-install
right click on project, select run on server. Select Tomcat server to run on, and you should see the initial page.
Conclusion
The steps described above, worked for me in making the project run successfully in my Eclispe Development Environment. Please give it a try to see if it will work for you.
An alternative solution which also seems to work, is
delete the project from eclipse, including all associated files in the workspace. (delete project directory from workspace as well)
Check the project out again from SVN into the workspace
Import new project in eclipse, but choose Maven\Existing Maven Project
Select the project from the disk and import.
Kind regards,
ta6hbe
It looks like You didn't install the m2eclipse WTP integration.
If so, than this may me the source of wrong deployment. When WTP integration is installed You shouldn't need to change anythong in the deployment descriptor - the plugin should configure Your project automatically. If not, try RMB -> Maven -> Update project configuration, but be sure to install the WTP integration first.
