Hi there,

This post below was helping me to succeed. 

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10316003/how-to-make-war-file-of-gwt-project-in-eclipse

However, when I was facing the similar problem to your, this is how I done 
it. It is pretty much starting over, but I love it. 

1. I downloaded the latest gwt here 
http://www.gwtproject.org/download.html. Please note that I use "GWT SDK" 
from the first one.
2. I downloaded the latest Eclipse. Please note that I have tried using 
older Eclipse 3.8.1-8, which is in Linux repositories, but it would not 
work with the plugin "GWT Eclipse Plugin". From the link here, 
http://www.gwtproject.org/download.html, 
please click on the second link "Plugin for Eclipse", drag, and Drop 
"Install" button" onto Eclipse.
3. Installed the file from step 1, and follow the steps here. If I don't 
create my project this way, I have problem, as the tutorial is much more 
difficult to follow. I also found that troubleshoot, and getting help 
online is a lot easier. 


cd gwt-2.8.1

chmod u+x webAppCreator

./webAppCreator -out MyWebApp com.mycompany.mywebapp.MyWebApp


At this point, your project would be here in this folder "gwt-2.8.1".

4. Now, this step is important for me, and it is what you are facing.

The tutorial would ask you to do this, which would work as well. 

cd MyWebApp/
ant devmode

But this command below, would make thing perfect just for you :)

cd MyWebApp/
ant eclipse.generate

5. Now, you may import your new project to Eclipse. I think it is File > Import 
> Import Existing Project to Workspace.
6. From the link here 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10316003/how-to-make-war-file-of-gwt-project-in-eclipse.
It was this section that helps me.

The best approach is to use the command

Please enjoy.
