Check your classpath, you probably have Servlets API in version 2.x (2.4, 2.5). This method was added in Servlets 3.0 (https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getJspConfigDescriptor--), and Jetty 9.2.14.v20151106 (the version that GWT uses) actually needs Servlets 3.1.0 (https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.eclipse.jetty%7Cjetty-project%7C9.2.14.v20151106%7Cjar)

(GWT 2.7.0 was using Jetty 8.1.12.v20130726, which BTW already needed Servlets 3.0 https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.eclipse.jetty%7Cjetty-project%7C8.1.12.v20130726%7Cjar, but could have maybe worked OK with Servlets 2.5 – I doubt it, maybe you changed the order of JARs in your classpath when upgrading; GWT 2.7 used to bundle the Servlets API into gwt-dev, and this has changed in 2.8.1, when retrieved from the Central Repository)

2) when i try to compile the project i get this exception

As someone told you already on StackOverflow, HasMetaData has been removed from GWT 2.8, after being deprecated for more than 8 years! (https://github.com/gwtproject/gwt/commit/aa1113205c3c2494d29a8c74cb368fdb497249f8)

You need to either update your gwt-maps dependency (if possible, but it's been unmaintained for years too, I have no idea of its compatibility story) or switch to another Google Maps integration library (or write yours using JsInterop).
