catalina.properties and catalina.policy are ignored
---------------------------------------------------
Key: MTOMCAT-59
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MTOMCAT-59
Project: Maven 2.x Tomcat Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.0
Environment: Maven 2.2.1, Tomcat 6.0.20
Reporter: Torben Knerr
Any configuration that is done in {{catalina.properties}} or
{{catalina.policy}} is not considered when Tomcat is started via the
tomcat-maven-plugin. I have tried to pass the system property
{{-Dcatalina.config=/path/to/catalina.properties}}, but it is actually never
read in the plugin code.
The reason seems to be that in {{AbstractRunMojo.java}} the Tomcat container is
created using
{code}
...
container = new Catalina();
...
{code}
When starting Tomcat manually using {{catalina.bat/sh}}, the container is
started via
{{[Bootstrap.java|http://www.docjar.com/html/api/org/apache/catalina/startup/Bootstrap.java.html]}}
which -- in addition to creating a new Catalina instance -- reads and
processes the two above mentioned files. In our special case we are relying on
the {{shared.loader=/path/to/shared/libs/*.jar}} configuration in
{{catalina.properties}}.
Is this a known/intended issue? Is this something that we can hope for a fix in
a future version?
Cheers and kind regards,
Torben
