I am trying to configure my GWT 2.7.0 app built with maven to work with Tomcat7 server inside the Eclipse IDE.
My project, here is link compiles and run fine in Tomcat server from linux console using maven. Here is how I run:
In first linux shell:
mvn clean install
mvn tomcat7:run-war-only
And in second shell:
mvn gwt:run -pl web
Add Tomcat resources window:
My project gwt_2.7.0_maven_eclipse is not there.
I do not understand why.
Here is my main pom.xml:

Edit
Here is my first project structure in Eclipse IDE
After some reading I've executed in linux shell: mvn eclipse:eclipse, which had rebuild my single app project into multi project (by project I meen Eclipse project). In the result of that I've got this structure:
