mvn gwt:gwt does not load the application (http error 404)

Is this Maven 1 or Maven 2?
maven 2.0.9

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. svn co
https://emarket.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/emarket/trunk/platform-ng emarket 
2. cd emarket
3. mvn gwt:gwt

What is the expected output? 
It should load the home page of the application

What do you see instead?
Http 404 error.
The project works fine if you host it in jetty
mvn clean jetty:run-war 
open http://localhost:8080/emarket in the browser

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.0-beta23 in Mac OS X

Please provide any additional information below.
I checked out the sample application from 
http://gwt-maven.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/maven-googlewebtoolkit2-plugin/simples
ample/

The sample works fine with "mvn gwt:gwt" goal.
I compared the entry point files, web.xml and pom.xml files.
My project is structured in the same way, ofcourse, the names of the
classes are different.
