Errors while deploying a "Hello World" app to the Google App Engine

Hi everyone,

I'm testing a simple hello world Vaadin application to run it on Google App Engine.

So, I followed this tutorial.

I checked the "web.xml" file and found that the servlet class is set to "GAEApplicationServlet", which is the right configuration.

The problem is that I have two errors :

• The output directory for the project should be set to /myProject/war/WEB-INF/classes

  . This error shows in the "Markers" tab in Eclipse. I checked many sites and they just tell to ingore it. That what I did.

• So, I deployed it to the GAE. But, after a successful deployment, I get a 500 error.
When I checked the logs console, I found the following errors :
