Did you try providing an exploded war to warFile parameter of mvn plugin? 

I did not use warFile param, I was using ROOT as final name. So I would use
warFile and the name of my project? ROOT in this case since it's folder's
name?

I do have a Maven POM project. Where should I locate the server.xml to avoid
copying exploded war to Tomee?

For eclipse, Tomcat adapter and Maven, see this
