maven創建web工程的時候報下面的錯誤

查閱資料有人提出如下原因（http://blog.csdn.net/moneyshi/article/details/53287036）
一、問題的原因
為何會出現這種FIleNotFoundException呢？ 原因無非兩點：
1、路徑配置錯誤
2、編譯有問題，文件不存在
二、解決辦法：
對於第一個原因，這個我們不多說，大家自己看看Java Web classpath詳解，改好配置目錄路徑，第一個原因排除，給大家一個案例參考
至於第二個原因，編譯不成功，導致文件不存在，拿Eclipse or MyEclipse為例， 首先去項目的編譯目錄查看資源文件和class文件是否編譯成功
如果編譯目錄的下不存在資源文件，那么編譯不成功， 解決辦法也很簡單，選擇Eclipse 工具欄上的Project ， 選擇clean up ,並勾選下面的 Build Automatically,這樣就會自動編譯了，等編譯完成，你再看文件目錄，是否存在資源文件，存在了，則完美解決
如果還不行，那么看看你是否是通過第三方插件或工具來進行編譯的，重新對項目進行編譯就好了
通過對比發現我是第二種原因，但用上述的方法不能解決后來想到了，是下面的原因造成的，要在工程的pom中，添加如下的
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<!-- 原文章這里是src/main/resource 少寫一個“s”被坑了T_T -->
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/*.properties</include>
<include>**/*.xml</include>
</includes>
<filtering>false</filtering>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
如果不添加上面的語句，maven在編譯的時候就會打.xml和.properties最為后綴的文件過濾掉，所以就會報錯了
