Hi Dave, actually that is significant. It means that one (or more) of the
namespaces in your deployment descriptor is not valid. If you're using a simple
dynamic web app, the namespaces at the top of the geronimo-web.xml should look
something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<web:web-app xmlns:dep="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/deployment-1.2";
xmlns:web="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web-2.0.1";>
<dep:environment>
<dep:moduleId>
<dep:groupId>default</dep:groupId>
<dep:artifactId>test</dep:artifactId>
<dep:version>1.0</dep:version>
<dep:type>car</dep:type>
</dep:moduleId>
</dep:environment>
<web:context-root>/test</web:context-root>
</web:web-app>
Also, the fact that you're not getting a geronimo-web.xml automatically is
problematic. Could you attach the .log file from your workspace .metadata
directory so we can see if you're getting any exceptions. Thanks

Yes, I am using Europa - Winter (although it doesn't make any difference if I
use a different Europa). There was no geronimo-web.xml in any of the
webapps I tried. I created one by hand from the HelloWorld I found on the
wiki, but that didn't change the error. (Not sure if it's significant, but
Eclipse cannot open this file in its default editor - there is an error
there as well, and it falls back to text.)
