I'm having trouble starting my Tomcat server, it used to work, but I did something wrong and now it throws me this exception:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The main resource set specified [E:\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp1\wtpwebapps\workspace\j2eeapplication\target\j2eeapplication-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT] is not valid
at org.apache.catalina.webresources.StandardRoot.startInternal(StandardRoot.java:643)
at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase.start(LifecycleBase.java:150)

And this is my web.xml :

I looked at different solutions over the forums, but nothing worked. Final option will be uninstalling tomcat and fresh installation, cause I read that might work. Thanks for the help in advance.
