The command "grails dev war" deploys perfectly in my local Tomcat6 server with a generated war which contains the next folders:
css
images
js
META-INF
plugins
WEB-INF
Unfortunately, I need that the command tomcat:deploy works too (I'm actually using: tomcat:redeploy -DskipTests). But Tomcat gives the next error:
2013-05-23 05:12:53,094 [http-8080-4] ERROR digester.Digester - Parse Fatal Error at line 1 column 1: Final de archivo prematuro.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; systemId: jndi:/localhost/Alojamiento/WEB-INF/web.xml; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Final de archivo prematuro.
at
I added an empty web.xml in order to maven compiled. It is also empty in the generated war. So it is probably the cause of the problem ("grails dev war" generates a web.xml with code). Futhermore, the generated war only contains the next folders:
META-INF
WEB-INF
To be able to use "tomcat deploy", I added the next code to the pom.xml (after adding pom true, running "create-pom group" and other configuration changes):
