Here is how to turn off Eclipse facets which gave me a few problems with the Spring related to drivers, something like "cannot establish a connection".

Right click project -> Project Natures -> search for 'Eclipse faceted Project Properties' -> Remove -> Apply and close.

This is related: also when you click Update Maven project and it regains the warning or problems which you've fixed before, then I think it is because of incompatibilities between the versions of Dynamic Web, Java and so on, with versions from maven dependency.

• Go to your /workspace/project/
• Edit .project file
• Make a backup of this file as a precaution

Search <nature> tag and remove all references, except this one:

<nature>org.eclipse.m2e.core.maven2Nature</nature>

The above line says you are using a maven project.

Remove other lines like:

<nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature>
<nature>org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.nature</nature>
