I am trying to get simple spring application up and running posted at Spring Example.
I am getting
SEVERE: Servlet /MavenWeb threw load() exception java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet

I have spring.jar, spring-webmvc.jar and all other required jars in place and so am not sure why am getting this error.
Here is my web.xml file

I am not sure as to what is going wrong here and would appreciate any help or suggestions. I have gone through springsource forums and other similar questions on SO and still it is not working. Any suggestions as to what might be the road block here?
