The declared package does not match the expected package "client"
eggsy84
I'm sorry for reposting this issue but after looking through all the
previous posts on this subject none of the suggested fixes have helped
me.
First of all a bit of background on my dev environment.
I have an existing web application (using Spring MVC) and I am trying
to introduce a small bit of GWT into the application.
I am using Eclipse as my IDE and have installed the latest GWT and GAE
plugins (GAE isn't going to be used).
For the application development I am using my own Tomcat server rather
than the GWT inbedded server and thus shall be using the -noserver
flag.
My directory structure is as follows:
Project
/Project/src/main/java *Defined as a source folder on Eclipse Build
path
/Project/src/main/resources
/Project/src/main/webapp
GWT sections
/Project/src/main/java/package1/package2/package3/gwt
/Project/src/main/java/package1/package2/package3/gwt/Module.gwt.xml
/Project/src/main/java/package1/package2/package3/gwt/client
/Project/src/main/java/package1/package2/package3/gwt/client/
EntryPointClass.java
I have then defined my Module.xml as the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE module PUBLIC "-//Google Inc.//DTD Google Web Toolkit 2.0.2//
EN" "http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/tags/2.0.2/distro-
source/core/src/gwt-module.dtd">
<module rename-to="mymodule">
<inherits name="com.google.gwt.user.User" />
<entry-point
class="package1.package2.package3.gwt.client.EntryPointClass" />
</module>
Currently I compile the application using the GWT plugin compile
option and add the following additional compiler flags:
-war src/main/webapp
which ensures that the I place it places the compiled JS into the
right location for my web app.
In terms of running the webapplication I can successfully run it and
the JS fires fine so I know the compile stage is working fine.
However I am now trying to debug my code using the GWT dev mode and
getting the following error:
The declared package "package1.package2.package3.gwt.client" does not
match the expected package "client".
So this takes me to my Eclipse run configuration for starting dev
mode.
I have a Java Application entry. On the 'Main' tab I have my project
selected and a Main class of:
com.google.gwt.dev.DevMode
On the 'arguments' tab I have the following:
-noserver -war src/main/webapp -startupUrl http://localhost:8080/MyProject/myUrl
Module
On the 'classpath' tab I have the following under 'User Entries':
- GWT SDK 2.0.2 Library
- gwt - /Project/src/main/java/package1/package2/package3/ (Folder)
Using the above definitions the Dev mode shell successfully fires up
but when I hit the URL:
http://localhost:8080/Project/testPage?gwt.codesvr=127.0.0.1:9997
I get the afore mentioned error.
If I try changing the run configuration User entries folder entry to
be simply:
/Project/src/main/java
The development mode cannot find my Module.gwt.xml upon startup.
With these kind of errors I'm aware that it is quite specific to a
particular users setup so even though I have gave the specifics of my
setup I'm quite aware it might be more useful to discuss the
particulars of the GWT dev mode classpath setup?
Would anyone like to contribute or shed any light on this?
Many thanks to all who read my essay ;)

The "user entry" should *obviously* be /Project/src/main/java
But you have to pass fully-qualified name of your module(s) as the
last argument(s), i.e. package1.package2.package3.gwt.Module

That was exactly what it was!
Thank you for showing me the wood through all the trees!
