Description

I updated from 2.0-SNAPSHOT to 2.0-beta-1 and stopped being able to deploy war files to tomcat. No changes were made to tomcat. The tomcat manager application is configured to allow access using username 'admin' and no password. The plugin configuration is:

<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>tomcat6-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0-beta-1</version>
<configuration>
<path>/</path>
<warFile>${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}.war</warFile>
<!-- Always undeploy before deploy -->
<update>true</update>
<mode>both</mode>
<tag>Britebill</tag>
<contextFile>${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}/META-INF/context.xml</contextFile>
</configuration>
</plugin>
