It may not be a tomcat process.
Linux: netstat -plnt | grep \:9090
Windows: netstat -an - look for a port that has state LISTENING on :9090.
netstat on Windows also has a parameter (might be -b, but check the usage
/?) to show the PID.

https://github.com/bmuschko/gradle-tomcat-plugin -> Convention properties
stopKey: The key to pass to Tomcat when requesting it to stop (defaults to
null).

Would need to pass the regular debug arguments to the jvm, often via jvmArgs
to the tomcat instance, not 100% sure on if / how arguments are passed to
the tomcat plugin / war plugin:
jvmArgs
['-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000,suspend=y','-Xdebug','-Xnoagent','-Djava.compiler=NONE']
Otherwise, you could just configure the logging library and use the console.
