I am trying to deploy a simple Seam 3 application on JBoss 7.1.1. The project uses Maven but is also a Dynamic web project so it can be run directly on my configured JBoss server. I am using Eclipse Juno for Java EE.
The project structure is:
The thing is, after I do a mvn:clean, mvn:package -> all the contents of the src/main/webapp/WEB-INF are copied to the "target/project/WEB-INF" folder. Also, there is a "lib" folder under WEB-INF as normal. The same contents appear in the project.war archive.
But, after doing a "Run as..run on server" or a "Full publish" if the server is running, the whole WEB-INF/lib folder disappears from the war! I checked the exploded war in the JBoss deployments folder and everything is there, except for this folder..
If I try copying it manually, it works, but I want to have the possibility to debug and that's why I want to use the Eclipse approach.
Any ideas of what is going on?
Find below the pom.xml that I am using:

Edit: I have also tried the JBoss 7 plugin (from here) and now I can do a mvn:jboss-as:deploy. But, with no better results..WEB-INF/lib is still empty.
Don't do Run as..run on server" or a "Full publish"
Enable jpda settings in standalone.conf (standalone.conf.bat) and use remote debug to localhost. Default port is 8787. To deploy war use mvn:jboss-as:deploy or copy war file in deployments dir manually.
