dependencies.dependency.version' is missing error

Question

I am trying to create a bundle using apache maven. When I run mvn clean install command it is giving the below error:

dependencies.dependency.version' is missing for javax.servlet:servlet-api.jar

I have placed that ‘servlet-api.jar’ inside resource folder of my project

Could any anyone please tell where should I place that jar file?

UPDATE: Here is my pom.xml

You haven't added the version tag in dependency.

<dependency>
        <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
        <artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
        <version>1.0.0</version>   //Add the version.
</dependency>
