Re: [m2e-users] Running a Maven webapp

Doc - somewhat outdated -  is available in the wiki : https://docs.sonatype.org/display/M2ECLIPSE/WTP+mini+howto

I'm not very familiar with Jetty, usually use it in maven. All I know is the Jetty server adapter in eclipse is not as good as the Tomcat one, which allows better, seamless deployment on resource changes.  

If you wanna stick with Jetty, I suggest you create a launch configuration in eclipse, basically running jetty:run and saving it as a file (Maven build configuration > common tab > shared file)

Thanks, didn't know it existed. Is there any documentation?

Installed it. (By the way, there appear to be duplicate versions of it. If you go to
http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e-extras in Eclipse, you'll see "Maven Integration for WTP" under both "Maven Integration for Eclipse Extras" and "Maven Integration for Eclipse WTP Integration". Two different version numbers. I pick the higher number, 0.11.).

Now I pick Run As/Run on Server, and I get:

Http Error 503
Problem accessing /testwebapp/. Reason:
Service Unavailable
powered by Jetty

It's not clear where to find the server logs to debug the problem. Any thoughts?

Have you installed the m2eclipse integration for WTP plugin (aka m2eclipse-wtp) 0.11.0?
The update site is http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e-extras/plugins/

Once installed, right click on your project and run Maven > Update Project Configuration

Using the latest version of m2eclipse, I created a new Maven project, picked the
"maven-archetype-webapp", and everything looks fine. Running "Maven package" off
the "Run As" menu creates a lovely .war file.

Now how do I run or debug the app?

Run As > Java Application does not work.

I installed WTP, but I can't seem to get Run As > Run On Server to work either.

I added:
       <plugins>
           <plugin>
               <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
               <artifactId>jetty-maven-plugin</artifactId>
               <version>7.2.0.v20101020</version>
           </plugin>
       </plugins>

to the POM, and now Run As / Maven Build... / Goals: jetty:run *does* work. But
debugging doesn't. When I set a breakpoint in a .jsp file I get a "source not
found" error.

There's got to be a standard way to run a webapp in Eclipse. What am I missing?
