Hi,

I'm getting this message:

"Missing web.xml deployment in WEB-INF folder"

I've check .mymetadata, and it matches what I'm doing with my other machines running the same project.

Sounds like you're using a Web development plugin like Lomboz - 'web.xml' is associated with web applications; it's not fundamentally associated with Eclipse itself.

The directory .metadata directory should not be involved in the solution to this problem. Maybe the plugin is assuming that web.xml is in the given directory (WEB-INF, where it would be in a WAR etc).

Dunno if that helped or not. What plugins do you have installed?

Samuel,
Tim is correct. In particular, you want to look in your web project. This is the project where you have your servlets and JSPs.
