Hi Marcelo! > Firt thing I noted was the amount of errors and warnings...
Add the Classpath variable "M2_REPO": In Eclipse: -> Window -> Preferences ->Java -> Buildpath-> Classpath variable-> New... Name: "M2_REPO", Folder: "<Your Users home directory>/.m2/repository", e.g. something like "c:\documents and settings\marcelo\.m2\repository\" > I didn't find a static dir or something alike, where css, images and other static file are stored > Where are the jsp and stuts template files Take a look at src/main/webapp > I also feel there's some redudancy. For example, there are two webapp dirs src: Your source files target: the folder containing the compiled / packaged versions of the src files. See maven2 homepage for more details about the directory structure >I'm not quite sure on the workflow for developing with AppFuse.
