Java Spring Runtime error

Question

I'm getting this error while running my application in eclipse by tomcat

[SetPropertiesRule]{Server/Service/Engine/Host/Context} Setting property 'source' to 'org.eclipse.jst.jee.server:Project' did not find a matching property.

As a result I'm getting resource not found error in browser

I also wanted to know, is this is what causing 404 error

Seems like there's a problem with you eclipse setup.

I know it can be hard to set up Spring in eclipse. There are a lot of ways to mess it up and produce unexpected errors.

Instead of learning the exact reason why you install failed I suggest looking into a eclipse verison with spring built in. The creators of spring understood the possible difficulties associated with their product and generously created a Spring Tools Suite here's a link, https://spring.io/tools

I strongly suggest you use STS for all your spring related development... As they(the creators) also suggest on their site.
