    copied!<p>I am having a devil of a time getting Eclipse to run my webapp on tomcat with the classpath correct. I have some spring configuration that references property files at classpath:/whatever.properties - these properties files live in my web project at src\main\resources, and I can see that they get deployed to the WEB-INF\classes folder, but they are not picked up. Also, a breakpoint in my custom spring property provider is not hit, even though the code is run (verified through logging).</p> <p>.project snippet:</p> <pre><code> &lt;buildSpec&gt; &lt;buildCommand&gt; &lt;name&gt;org.maven.ide.eclipse.maven2Builder&lt;/name&gt; &lt;arguments&gt; &lt;/arguments&gt; &lt;/buildCommand&gt; &lt;buildCommand&gt; &lt;name&gt;org.eclipse.jdt.core.javabuilder&lt;/name&gt; &lt;arguments&gt; &lt;/arguments&gt; &lt;/buildCommand&gt; &lt;buildCommand&gt; &lt;name&gt;org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.builder&lt;/name&gt; &lt;arguments&gt; &lt;/arguments&gt; &lt;/buildCommand&gt; &lt;buildCommand&gt; &lt;name&gt;org.eclipse.wst.validation.validationbuilder&lt;/name&gt; &lt;arguments&gt; &lt;/arguments&gt; &lt;/buildCommand&gt; &lt;/buildSpec&gt; &lt;natures&gt; &lt;nature&gt;org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature&lt;/nature&gt; &lt;nature&gt;org.maven.ide.eclipse.maven2Nature&lt;/nature&gt; &lt;nature&gt;org.eclipse.jem.workbench.JavaEMFNature&lt;/nature&gt; &lt;nature&gt;org.eclipse.wst.common.modulecore.ModuleCoreNature&lt;/nature&gt; &lt;nature&gt;org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.nature&lt;/nature&gt; &lt;/natures&gt; </code></pre> <p>.classpath snippet:</p> <pre><code>&lt;classpath&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="src" path="src/main/java"/&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="src" path="src/main/resources"/&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.internal.web.container"/&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.internal.module.container"/&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="con" path="org.maven.ide.eclipse.MAVEN2_CLASSPATH_CONTAINER"&gt; &lt;attributes&gt; &lt;attribute name="org.eclipse.jst.component.dependency" value="/WEB-INF/lib"/&gt; &lt;/attributes&gt; &lt;/classpathentry&gt; &lt;classpathentry combineaccessrules="false" kind="src" path="/OtherProject"/&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jst.server.core.container/org.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.runtimeTarget/Tomcat v5.5 Server"/&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER/org.eclipse.jdt.internal.debug.ui.launcher.StandardVMType/jdk1.5.0_16"/&gt; &lt;classpathentry kind="output" path="target/classes"/&gt; &lt;/classpath&gt; </code></pre> <p>org.eclipse.wst.common.component:</p> <pre><code>&lt;project-modules id="moduleCoreId" project-version="1.5.0"&gt; &lt;wb-module deploy-name="Web Module"&gt; &lt;wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/src/main/webapp"/&gt; &lt;wb-resource deploy-path="/WEB-INF/classes" source-path="/src/main/java"/&gt; &lt;wb-resource deploy-path="/WEB-INF/classes" source-path="/src/main/resources"/&gt; &lt;dependent-module deploy-path="/WEB-INF/lib" handle="module:/resource/OtherProject/OtherProject"&gt; &lt;dependency-type&gt;uses&lt;/dependency-type&gt; &lt;/dependent-module&gt; &lt;property name="context-root" value="WebModule"/&gt; &lt;property name="java-output-path"/&gt; &lt;/wb-module&gt; &lt;/project-modules&gt; </code></pre> <p>I have tried with Tomcat's Location (right click the server, select Properties) being in workspace metadata, and also with it living in the Servers project. I have tried using the workspace metadata deployment, letting eclipse take over my tomcat installation, and a custom deployment location. It has worked once - breakpoint hit, properties read - but when I started the server again the next time, it went back to its old ways.</p> <p>If you need more information, let me know and I'll edit the post ASAP.</p>
