    解决： maven的web项目默认的webroot是在src\main\webapp。如果在此目录下找不到web.xml就抛出以上的异常。解决方法在pom.xml加入以下的配置。红色背景字体改成你网站的根目录。
<build>
<finalName>simple-webapp</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1.1</version>
<configuration>
<webResources>
<resource>
<!-- this is relative to the pom.xml directory -->
<directory>WebContent</directory>
</resource>
