Tomcat 7 maven plugin - I/O exception (java.net.SocketException) caught when processing request: Broken pipe

Question

I read all the questions regarding my issue with no success... I'm depolying my war with maven and I want it to go to tomcat server on another ip.

I followed all the settings...

My POM for the plugin

<plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
        <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.2</version>
        <configuration>
            <url>http://192.168.3.67:8080/manager/text</url>
            <server>TomcatServer</server>
            <path>webapp</path>
        </configuration>
    </plugin>

My /conf/settings.xml for tomcat has

<server>
        <id>TomcatServer</id>
        <username>maven</username>
        <password>maven</password>
</server>

And tomcat-user.xml is as follows

<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<role rolename="manager-script"/>
<user username="system" password="raspberry" roles="manager-gui"/>
<user username="maven" password="maven" roles="manager-script"/>

When I try to deploy the application I got

[INFO] Deploying war to http://192.168.3.67:8080/manager/webapp

I can simply deploy the application going to the manager page of the server, the server is reachable... I can't understand what can be...

Looks like a firewall/network issue. Are you able to upload the file from your browser? — 6ton, Nov 25 '15 at 14:05
I have no firewall at all... I'm in an internal LAN with the server. I can send files via FTP or SSH, and I can deploy them by uploading the war from the /manager page of tomcat... Just the plugin seems not to work... — MarioC, Nov 25 '15 at 14:35
Just for the sake of having tried it: what happens when you try to use version 2.3-SNAPSHOT of the plugin which seems to be the last they made for Tomcat 7? Broken pipe is rather non-specific, but you can be pretty sure it is because the host (the Tomcat 7 server) prematurely closes the connection for whatever reason. On that note, perhaps there is something in the logs of the Tomcat 7 server? — Gimby, Nov 25 '15 at 15:04
Nothing to do @Gimby i changed the version but i have the some problem. Nothing is written in the apache logs except the tries to load the war - 25-Nov-2015 16:19:39.843 INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-3] org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext.log Manager: deploy: Deploying web application 'webapp' — MarioC, Nov 25 '15 at 15:21
Not exactly the same, but still worth a read: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14602744/tomcat-deployement-issue-in-a-maven-project — Gimby, Nov 25 '15 at 15:29
Basically any of the many existing questions seem to boil down to missing roles: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25336099/error-when-i-try-deploy-application-to-tomcat7-server — Gimby, Nov 25 '15 at 15:32
Thank you Gimby, I read those questions, my war is 13mb and I have the manager-script role in my settings.xml... — MarioC, Nov 25 '15 at 15:38
I want just to add that I've moved tomcat in the same machine I have my workspace, so with Maven I have to deploy on the some machine... but i get the same error... — MarioC, Dec 02 '15 at 16:48

I have the same problem, and solved now. Just read this Tomcat deployement issue in a Maven project, by Belden Schroeder.

Ensure all of the following manager roles are added to your tomcat-users.xml.

<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<role rolename="manager-script"/>
<role rolename="manager-jmx"/>
<role rolename="manager-status"/>
<user username="test1" password="test" roles="manager-script,manager-jmx" />

run: mvn tomcat7:deploy

output :

[INFO] --- tomcat7-maven-plugin:2.2:deploy (default-cli) @ xx ---
[INFO] Deploying war to http://localhost:8080/xx

the path should start with slash.

change

<path>webapp</path>

to

<path>/webapp</path>

Check if the tomcat port or path in the local configuration file is consistent with the remote tomcat
