Thanks, Fred, for your quick answer, and sorry for the delay. Trying
to strip down our Eclipse project is not an option. With all the
Eclipse history and caches I doubt I'd be able to end up with an
Eclipse project that I can share with you or anyone else. But:
I finally succeeded in getting our webapp to work under Eclipse
Indigo with m2e - yuppieee!
Rough howto (if anyone else is affected):
1. Start with a fresh Eclipse Indigo install and an empty workspace.
Install and configure the required plugins, incl. the latest m2e-wtp
(v 0.13.1) *before* importing any of your projects.
2. Delete .project, .classpath from your Eclipse project *before*
importing it into your workspace
3. Right-click your project in the SVN Repositories perspective and
choose "Check out as Maven project...". Select the appropriate
options and checkout/import your project
4. Create/update the project configuration by right-clicking your
project in the Package Explorer and selecting Maven > Update
Project Configuration. This should generate the necessary Java Build
Path entries, and also the necessary entries for "Deployment
Assembly" in the project properties.
5. In my case, the web content stuff (META-INF, WEB-INF) is located
under <projectHome>/src/main/webapp instead of
<projectHome>/WebContent where Eclipse is obviously expecting
it. Thus I had to manually add /src/main/webapp to the "Deployment
Assembly" paths.
Following these steps (and compiling and maven-building your webapp
in between of course), I succeeded in getting it up and running.
The following problems I have observed earlier have not occurred
anymore (touch wood!):
* "Maven Dependencies" container is not added to the "Deployment
Assembly" list.
* All maven dependencies marked with
<scope>provided</scope> are deployed to the webapp
nontheless.
Should they occur for you, I advise you to follow the steps above
instead of trying to fix your existing workspace.
HTH,
stefan.

Stefan, I suspect the provided dependencies are
deployed because you manually added the Maven Libraries to the
deployment assembly. But I'm not sure.
If you guys can try to reproduce the issue using a sample project,
that'd be helpful. You can try by trimming down your app (remove
any code), remove references to any proprietary plugins /
dependencies, obfuscate some names or whatever you don't wanna see
publicized.
I'd be happy to help but really, I need you guys.

Hi
I completely agree with you - I've also tried to move to
Eclipse Indigo with m2e 1.0 and m2e-wtp 0.13.1 - but gave up
after some time.
The problem you see can be solved by adding the Maven
Dependencies to the Deployment Assembly: Right-click on your
web project > Properties > Deployment Assembly >
Add > Java Build Path Entries > Maven Dependencies.
The problem that then remains (at least for me) is this
bug:
HTH,
stefan.
I am having a real tough time trying to migrate
our existing app which consists of about 10 java
projects with 1 java webapp project. Installing
eclipse and just m2e is fine but as soon as I
install m2e-wtp I either get errors or things
generally aren't working. I'll start with my current
issue but I may have some follow-ups.
Before the migration I deleted all my existing
Eclipse project files (.classpath, .project,
.settings/) and then used the 'Import Existing Maven
Projects' option. After the import I had a number of
errors which I have all now fixed. I had to
restructure a number of things but ultimately I am
happy with all those modifications.
When I create a new (Tomcat) Server I select the
option 'Use Tomcat Installation'. When I look in the
<tomcat>/wtpwebapps/intouch-webapp/WEB-INF/lib
folder I only see my internal project dependencies
(i.e. the 10 jars from the 10 projects). I don't see
any of my external dependancies such as Spring,
commons*, ehcache, joda, etc... In previous
versions of m2eclipse I always saw all the project
dependencies.
Any ideas?
