The container 'Maven Dependencies' references non existing library - STS

Question

I\'m using win8 previously I had been running Eclipse Juno on my pc but from now on I wanted to start using STS, I am getting the below error as soon as I create a new project.

Answer 1

So I get you are using Eclipse with the M2E plugin. Try to update your Maven configuration : In the Project Explorer, right-click on the project, Maven -> Update project.

If the problem still remains, try to clean your project: right-click on your pom.xml, Run as -> Maven build (the second one). Enter "clean package" in the Goals fields. Check the Skip Tests box. Click on the Run button.

Edit: For your new problem, you need to add Spring MVC to your pom.xml. Add something like the following:

    org.springframework
    spring-webmvc
    4.0.0.RELEASE

Maybe you have to change the version to match the version of your Spring framework. Take a look here:

http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework/spring-webmvc
