SBT Web Plugin : Error getting ScopedKey(Scope(This,Select(ConfigKey(container)),This,This),full-classpath)

Question

I'm trying to set up scala web project with sbt. I've following settings.

• scala 2.9.0-1
• sbt 0.11.0
• xsbt-web-plugin 0.2.1

project/plugins.sbt

libraryDependencies <+= sbtVersion(v => "com.github.siasia" %% "xsbt-web-plugin" % (v+"-0.2.1"))

project/TaskTrackerBuild.scala

import sbt._
import com.github.siasia._
import WebPlugin._
import PluginKeys._
import Keys._
/**
 * Main sbt build file for the task-tracker project.
    *
 */
object TicketingCoreProject extends Build {
  val ticketingVersion = "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT"
  val Organization = "org.sansoft"
  val ScalaVersion = "2.9.0-1"

  val jodaTime = "joda-time" % "joda-time" % "1.6"
  val scalaTime = "org.scala-tools.time" % "time_2.8.0" % "0.2"

  def publishToRepository = Some(Resolver.file("Local Maven Repository", Path.userHome / ".m2" / "repository" asFile))

  lazy val baseSettings = Defaults.defaultSettings ++ Seq(
    version := ticketingVersion,
    organization := Organization,

    publishTo := publishToRepository,
    resolvers ++= repositories,
    checksums := Nil
  )

  lazy val parent = Project("taskTrackerParent", file("."),
    settings = baseSettings ++ Seq(
      name := "task-tracker-parent"
    )) 

  lazy val core = Project("core", file("core"),
    settings = baseSettings ++ Seq(
      name := "core",
      libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
        jodaTime,
        scalaTime,
        scalaTesting,
        ScalaCheckDep,
        casbah,
        jodaTime,
    scalaTime)))  

  lazy val web = Project("web", file("web"),
    settings = baseSettings ++ webSettings ++ Seq(
      name := "web",
      libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
        jodaTime,

    jodaTime,
    scalaTime,
        vaadin,
        jettyWebApp,
        jettyPlus))) dependsOn(core)

}

When I try to start sbt with this build file I get following error.

[error] Error getting ScopedKey(Scope(This,Select(ConfigKey(container)),This,This),full-classpath)
[error] Use 'last' for the full log.

If I remove the configuration webSettings from the web project sbt project compiles fine. What have I done wrong in this???

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I had exactly the same issue when I tried to use webSettings.

Today I found a solution on project-doc: https://github.com/siasia/xsbt-web-plugin/wiki/Deployment-scenarios

The plugin works when I change from webSettings to webAppSettings.
