Tapestry 5 cannot resolve symbol "layout"

I´m trying to get a simple Tapestry sample working, but I´m getting stuck at the very beginning.

I want to declare my first tml page, which I have from the official tapestry site (not yet allowed to post links).

<html t:type="layout" t:id="index" xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_3.xsd"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_3.xsd ">

<h1>Welcome to the Nifty Web Application!</h1>

<p>
 Would you like to
<t:pagelink page="login">Log In</t:pagelink>
?
</p>
</html>

It says "cannot resolve symbol layout" and "cannot resolve symbol login" and I also tried commonLayout which can´t be found too, but there are many other types showing up in the auto completion, which means that in general there is everything okay with the library stuff.

I´ve added every dependency from the sample.

Is layout kind of deprecated or am I missing something?

You are more likely to get help on the Tapestry mailing list.

And you are more likely to get help by reporting the exact error that Tapestry produces. Trust me, a lot of work has gone into making that information valuable, please include it. For example, I can pretty much guarantee that the errors you cite are not the actual error messages Tapestry produced.

That being said, Tapestry does not include a Layout component, since it is one of the most application specific parts of any application. It is something you build yourself. There are tutorials, or the Tapestry Maven archetype includes a basic one.

Likewise, there is no built-in Login page. That's a pretty standard thing you build in yourself as well.

Tapestry is infrastructure, not magic.
