Solution 1

The jar may be in your deployed folder, but is the jar (or your deployed folder with a wildcard) in the CLASSPATH?

Solution 2

try change dependency of spring-web to 3.0.5.RELEASE in your pom, you are currently have 2 version on classpath

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
  <version>3.0.5.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

I look in my deployed folder however and I see the jar that contains that file, what am I doing wrong?

https://github.com/davidahines/spacechip/tree/spring_security

The issue is that when I try to go to localhost:8080/spacechip I get "The resource is unavailable."

There is my configuration.
