I'm using Maven 3.0.3. Is there a way I can use the Maven Cargo plugin to spin up an embedded Tomcat server? Right now, it seems I have to install it myself first. I get this error when I try and change the container type to "embedded" ...
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.cargo:cargo-maven2-plugin:1.1.2:run (default-cli) on project jx: Execution default-cli of goal org.codehaus.cargo:cargo-maven2-plugin:1.1.2:run failed: Cannot create configuration. There's no registered configuration for the parameters (container [id = [tomcat6x], type = [embedded]], configuration type [standalone]). Actually there are no valid types registered for this configuration. Maybe you've made a mistake spelling it? -> [Help 1]
The configuration that I used was ...
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.cargo</groupId>
<artifactId>cargo-maven2-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<container>
<containerId>tomcat6x</containerId>
<type>embedded</type>
</container>
<configuration>
<properties>
<cargo.servlet.port>8080</cargo.servlet.port>
<cargo.logging>high</cargo.logging>
</properties>
Any help is appreciated. The reason I'm not using the Maven embedded Tomcat plugin is that it doesn't support multiple deployment artifacts. Thanks, - Dave
From cargo documentation Embedded Container is not supported on tomcat6. It is only supported for jetty.
