Not sure if I answered this, but it seem like web.xml is actually created by WTP. Perhaps when m2eclipse adds one of the web facets to the project.

Hi

Of course I can create the web.xml by my self. The funny thing is if I do the same on a Windows machine it creates the
web.xml and WEB-INF folder if I select simple project and war as packaging.
But not on the Mac.

I use the m2eclipse plugin and creates the project. However, the
src/main/webapp folder is empty. I can't build the war file since web.xml is missing!

If I do the same on a Windows machine it works perfectly.

Is this a bug in m2eclipse using a mac ?
The new Maven project wizard in "Simple project" mode does not create any resources other then pom.xml with specified Maven coordinates and basic folder structure. So, you have to manually create your web.xml and configure required Maven plugins and other project resources.

If you need just a simple web project that would build out of the box, you can use maven-archetype-webapp, which does exactly what you want.
