I wanted to try Spring-MVC with GWT and for that I found [this](https://github.com/kolorobot/spring-mvc-quickstart-archetype) archetype. When I downloaded it locally, and ran a `mvn clean && mvn install`, it generates a jar file, but the packaging for the project in 2nd pom.xml is of type WAR. For deploying it in tomcat, I added the compile-output for the project, but I am still unable to run the project. I am adding the error log, and screenshots. Can someone also help me understand the project structure. Thank you. 

Sorry for the TMI, don't know exactly what's the problem, so trying all possibilities. 

Error log :
