More than one fragment with the name [spring_web] was found. In non maven project

Question

I am new to Java and I directly started with Spring MVC(do not know if it is a good idea). I have created a sample spring mvc project and have added simple Home Cotroller. I ran the project as 'Run on server'. I have not created a maven project. Its a dynamic project. I am getting following error:

More than one fragment with the name [spring_web] was found. This is not legal with relative ordering. See section 8.2.2 2c of the Servlet specification for details. Consider using absolute ordering.

I am using -
JRE 1.8, Spring 5.1, Tomcat 9.

Following is my web.xml

No, that thread is for Maven project. Mine is non maven project. — user2746466, Mar 15 '19 at 07:31
Please read the exception message and what it advices you to do. You are using servlet. Absolute ordering is servlet related. — Selaron, Mar 15 '19 at 21:05
@user2746466 the other thread is for a maven-based project but solutions are valid for non-maven projects too. — Pino, Mar 21 '19 at 14:47

For non-maven projects, you can solve it by placing <absolute-ordering /> just before the ending of the web-app. In other words, put <absolute-ordering /> just before the </web-app>. I had the same problem with a non-maven project and this fixed the issue.
