Maven WebApp with Intellij - procedure
intellij-idea, java, maven, servlets
Solution
Create a new folder under main called java. Then right-click it and select Mark Directory As -> Sources Root. Use this directory for all your java code and everything should work!
Problem
What is the procedure to make a Java EE WebApp with Maven and Intellij? This is what I do: - File / New / Project - Project Type : Maven - Create From archetype : maven-archetype-webapp But when I create a servlet IntelliJ shows a symbol on the servlet: This symbol is "Java class located out of the source root. Refer to the section Configuring Content Roots for details" If I launch the project I get an error. If I mark the "resources" directory as "Sources Root", the project works. But if I reload Maven (right click / maven / reimport) the resources directory lost the "Source Root" structure. I think something is wrong in my procedure.
