Cactus plugin should report server HTTP response code.
Now it does not, and when server responds with e.g. 401 (Authorization required)
plugin displays:
BUILD FAILED
File...... file:/home/user/.maven/plugins/maven-cactus-plugin-3.1/
Element... cactus
Line...... 265
Column.... 53
Failed to start the container after more than [180000] ms.
Total time: 4 minutes 20 seconds
Finished at: Fri Oct 03 11:03:27 CEST 2003
which is misleading, because problem is not with starting container but with
starting tests.
This bug primarily was noticed while using Cactus plugin in Maven.
