  1. POStart multiple tomcat instances with maven-tomcat-plugin

    copied!<p>we need to start 3 tomcats with the same web-application but different configuration (injected through spring + system properties) in order to execute some integration tests of a swing application.</p> <p>We have a maven project dedicated for this testing that fetches both the WAR for the server-side app and the JAR for the swing app, starts 3 tomcat instances on 3 different sets of ports, deploys the WAR in those tomcats and runs the tests.</p> <p>Here is our maven config:</p> <pre><code>&lt;project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"&gt;

If I comment out the first plugin execution, then all tests that target this server now fail (obviously), but the tests that target the next one in the list now pass.</p> <p>Do you have any idea of what's wrong with this configuration?
