By default, this plugin expects a web.xml, which explains the error you are getting. Sample configuration: maven-war-plugin 2.6 false share|improve this answer answered Oct 28 '15 at 12:01 Tunaki 57.4k1885116 Or update the war-plugin to a recent one... –M.

I've searched this error and the results are repleat with only one 'fix' to it which is to make sure the web.xml is in the /src/main/webapp/WEB-INF folder. The apps web.xml is there and I've even added a specific webxml tag to my pom to no avail. I'm really banging my head against a wall with this error and any insight would be appreciated pom snippet: local env local org.apache.maven.plugins maven-war-plugin 2.1 ${basedir}/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml ${basedir}/src/main/webapp local RoofingEstimator src/main/local true WEB-INF src/main/resources/web true web Directory Structure: C:\HeliosWorkspace\Projects\WS_MavenConversion\myApp\src\main\webapp\WEB-INF\web.xml Command line build using "mvn clean package -Plocal" fails though the same options in eclipse build configurations does complete the package with a console warning. I've been tweeking my pom.xml, web.xml and even tried directory structure but just can't get this error/warnin
