Are you getting below exception while running Spring MVC Project in Eclipse?
Tomcat 7 is not starting when a web application(with a servlet) is attempted to run. The server works well when I only have a html page. But when I try to add a servlet and add it to tomcat.
Then the server does not start and gives an error saying “Tomcat 7 didn’t start in 45 seconds”.
I increased the timeout but nothing happened. Well – here is a quick tip to solve it.
