Can not find the tag library descriptor for tiles when using Maven

Question

Here is my config in web.xml file

<listener>
    <listener-class>org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesListener</listener-class>
</listener>

<filter>
    <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

Here is the config in pom.xml

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId>
        <artifactId>struts2-core</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.1</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId>
        <artifactId>struts2-spring-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.1</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId>
        <artifactId>tiles-jsp</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.2</version>
        <type>pom</type>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>

It keeps saying this: Can not find the tag library descriptor for "http://struts.apache.org/tags-tiles" when I add taglib into layout:

<%@ taglib prefix="tiles" uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-tiles"%>

And when I run on server:

SEVERE: Error configuring application listener of class org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesListener

Did I miss something here?

Solution

Thanks to Kenny Lee I found out the solution for this one after weeks :(( You’ll need to configure your eclipse project settings by:

1. Right click on the project in eclipse on the left panel under the package explorer view.
2. Click Java EE Module Dependencies.
3. Check (make sure the checkbox is ticked) the Maven Dependencies option (the last option).

For Eclipse 3.6 Click Here for more information

Sometimes after configuration you have to refresh the project or use mvn clean and mvn install and it will do the tricks

Thanks, but I use Tiles definitions defined in a centralized file. :(

Thanks for your reply, as you can see in my related question, after I added struts2-tiles-plugin, I still got java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesListener :(
