Anyway, after some time googleing this is my configuration for the Apache Tomcat Maven Plugin for Tomcat 7.x and Maven 3.x.1. Into pom.xml in the build/plugins tag add:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<configuration>
<server>tomcatserver</server>
<url>http://localhost:8080/manager/text</
<path>/</path>
<username>admin</username>
<password>admin</password>
</configuration>
</plugin>
2. The server name "tomcatserver" needs to match with the server declared into the maven settings.xml. You can use the one in maven home or userhome/.m2 folder.
In linux you can check where is your maven with the command "which mvn". In ubuntu is in "/usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-3.1.1".
Edit the conf/settings.xml and add the follow snippet into the "servers" tag:
<server>
<id>tomcatserver</id>
<username>admin</username>
<password>admin</password>
</server>
3. Edit the "tomcat-users.xml" in the "tomcat.home/conf" and add the admin user as follows inside of the "tomcat-users" tag:
<user username="admin" password="admin" roles="manager-script"/>
Note: The "tomcat.home" depends how you installed tomcat, if you installed through apt-get the config files usually are under "'/etc/tomcat6/7".
4. Run the plugin as follows:
"mvn package tomcat7:run" For deploying and running tomcat in the same terminal use.
"mvn package tomcat7:deploy" If you have tomcat 7 already up and running just use this command in order to deploy the war file. The pom.xml needs to be properly configured to produce a war file, see maven documentation for more details.
"mvn package tomcat7:redeploy" to redeploy the application.
That is all, I hope it helps
Keep coding !
