I have faced this error and the following details helped me in resolving the issue:
Eclipse versions earlier than Luna
I'm not certain if this is the best thing to do but I followed the instructions mentioned here with regards to getting rid of the auto generated web resources folder and this seems to also resolve the issue with the missing MANIFEST.MF:
- on your project only : right-click on the project > Properties > Maven > WTP : check "Enable Project Specific Settings" and uncheck "Maven Archiver generates files under the build directory"
- on the whole workspace : Window > Preferences > Maven > WTP : uncheck "Maven Archiver generates files under the build directory"
We actually generate our manifest entries as part of the maven-war-plugin when we actually want to package/build the project, but I dont think m2e-wtp uses this. In any event, the manifest file is irrelevant for us in the build that m2e-wtp creates for use within eclipse.
Eclipse Luna and later
For Eclipse Luna you have to go:
Preferences > Maven > Java EE Integration and uncheck "Maven Archiver generates files under the build directory".
Eclipse Luna does not have the path at project Properties and the WTP section.
