I have seen numerous posts with the same issue in SO. But the solutions provided in those posts does not help resolve my issue.

I have created a webapp and trying to run the same in tomcat server. When I try to run the project, I get HTTP Status 404, and the following error in tomcat console:

I have added all the jar dependencies for spring correctly. Any help resolving the above issue is well appreciated.

I just answered the same question here: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener in eclipse

The fix was explained here: http://commonexceptions.blogspot.com/2014/01/java.html.
