Constantino Cronemberger commented on MTOMCAT-266:
--------------------------------------------------
It looks like this is similar to MTOMCAT-83.
I understand fork is used for integration tests, so it will not really cover
what I really need and maybe what the reporter wants as well.
In my case I would like to run tomcat with this Java argument:
-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.logging.log4j.jul.LogManager
I tried to add it in the systemProperties element but it did not work because
Maven also uses JUL so it gets initialized before this system property is set.
The option I have now is to pass this argument to Maven, but then I would need
to also add to Maven classpath all Lo4j2 jars which is not a good idea.
Then I searched for some options to let Tomcat be started in a separate JVM and
I found this fork configuration, but now I know it will not work for me.
So maybe we will need another option to control whether we want to let the
forked process running or not.

> The plugin works perfectly running Tomcat with my project web application.
> I do "mvn tomcat7:run" and the server is started, the webapp is deployed and
> I can browse to it.
> If I add the <fork /> attribute, though, the server crashes.
