Description

Download the latest TOMEE Plume snapshot release.

http://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/org/apache/openejb/apache-tomee/1.7.3-SNAPSHOT/

After that, open your netbeans and on the Services tab add a new Server of type Tomcat or TOMEE.

Point to the folder where the snapshort tar.gz got extracted.

Setup a user with the proper rights to administer tomee.

for example
<user password="admin" roles="tomcat,tomee-admin,manager-gui,manager-script,admin" username="admin"/>

Now click start on the tomee server.

Tomee quickly starts, but the plugin stays active forever stating:
Waiting for tomcat to start.

After a while the plugin will show an alert stating that the server failed to start.
The server started fine.

NOTE:
THe netbeans tomee plugin has a second bug that should be filed under a different bug report.
Which is, when you deploy an application that breaks during deployment, an infinite loop of tomcat trying to repdeploy the broken application will take place.

I am leting you know of this second as right now I do not have the opprotunity to make you a sample application to reproduce the problem, and therefore will not open a bug report.

Kindest regards.
