ooops I looked at the error message again -------------- 18K downloaded [INFO] [tomcat:deploy] [INFO] Deploying war to http://localhost:8080/tutorial [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Cannot invoke Tomcat manager Embedded error: Connection refused: connect -------------- and figured it needs a running tomcat instance.
So i did mvn tomcat:run and it worked fine. I can now access my tomcat instance hosting my bootstrap struts2 project at http://localhost:8080/tutorial which is cool. thanks everyone, robin robinbajaj wrote: > > Thanks for your response Dave. > I tried the tomcat-maven-plugin > > basically removed the jetty plugin and introduced tomcat-maven-plugin into > my pom.xml > as follows > <plugin> > <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> > <artifactId>tomcat-maven-plugin</artifactId> > <configuration> > <url>http://localhost:8080/manager</url> > </configuration> > </plugin> > > And then ran the mvn tomcat:deploy on command line. > Here's the error I am getting > URL: http://rafb.net/p/6avAol60.html > I don't think I have to have a tomcat pre-installed for this, since I > noticed maven downloads > the required components on its own.
