Question

I wanna make web project using the Maven to import automatically all libraries that I need, so I chose \"maven-archetype-webpp\"

after that I got this error

In my case it was a failed import to eclipse. I had to delete the project from eclipse (without deleting form the filesystem of course) and reimport it. After that the error was gone immediately.
