Perhaps you lost some configuration  check jar dependencies in properties -  Deployment Assembly  If you miss something  try to add dependencies again   in my case  fixing this  Run on Server appear again

Do you see any servers in server view in eclipse  Probably simply you have not created any server instances

I had a similar issue  The Maven projects have different structure than  Dynamic Web Projects   Eclipse knows only how to deploy the Dynamic Web Projects  project structure used by Web Tools Platform    In order to solve this and tell Eclipse how to deploy a  maven style  projects  you have to install the M2E Eclipse WTP plugin  I suppose you are already using the m2e plugin    To install  Preferences- Maven- Discovery- Open Catalog and choose the WTP plugin   After reinstalling  you will be able to  run on server  those projects which are maven web projects   Hope that helps
