Librarys in pom.xml or in /lib

[jillansa]

Hello.

I want to use Spring with Maven in WebApp J2EE. I've this definition in the web.xml file.

	<servlet>
		<servlet-name>AppSpring</servlet-name>
		<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
		<init-param>
            <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
            <param-value>/WEB-INF/configure/AppSpring-servlet.xml</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
	</servlet>
	<servlet-mapping>
		<servlet-name>AppSpring</servlet-name>
		<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
	</servlet-mapping>

And I included the dependencies in pom.xml.

		<!-- Spring framework -->
		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring</artifactId>
			<version>2.5.6</version>
		</dependency>

		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
			<version>3.0.6.RELEASE</version>
		</dependency>

		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
			<version>3.0.6.RELEASE</version>
		</dependency>

		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring-webmvc</artifactId>
			<version>3.0.6.RELEASE</version>
		</dependency>

		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId>
			<version>3.0.6.RELEASE</version>
		</dependency>

		<!-- Apache Tiles -->
		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId>
			<artifactId>tiles-core</artifactId>
			<version>2.2.2</version>
		</dependency>

But when I start the server Tomcat I recieve this error

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.servlet.DispacherServlet

If I copy org.springframework.web.servlet-3.0.0.M3.jar file in the /WEB-INF/lib directory, I don't recive the error for this class.

Why this error? I need include this file in lib directory? I want to use Maven for managment dependecies. Thanks.

My initial thoughts are that something is either up with your classpath or you're doing something odd with web.xml. My reasons for thinking that are:
- you're mixing and matching versions of spring
- the exception has a different path to the dispatcher servlet then spring 3.0.6 does.
