Spring roo 1.2.2 and GWT 2.5 compatibility - spring

Question

I am trying to deploy an application using Spring Roo and GWT. I am a starter at both GWT and Roo and started by following this tutorial, but there seems to be a ploblem because the sample application cannot be started usin mvn:gwt run.
The result of the above maven command:

I have tried using both standard eclipse and STS but with no luck and every tutorial I can find is about roo 1.1.1.
So my question is if GWT is compatible with Roo and if yes is there a working sample code-tutorial to use?
Can someone please help me?

Answer 1

You might be coming across some version mismatch.
The documentation is not changed but always refer to latest - https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/roo-sts#install
Latest STS for GWT 2.5 -
http://blog.springsource.org/2012/12/18/spring-roo-1-2-3-release-available/
Also ensure you are using latest gwt-maven-plugin version 2.5
