My application only runs on tomcat7-maven-plugin which is present in pom.xml. If I run it on my external tomcat , It gives me error of 404. I tried removing it out of pom.xml, but no use. Any help in this regard is appreciated.

my pom.xml:

  • Welcome to SO. Can you please elaborate the steps/actions on: "run it on my external tomcat , It gives me error of 404" ? Do you package your app in a `war` via `mvn clean package`? Log files to check that the application is deployed on tomcat or any other error? There are many details you have to give than just a plain "it doesn't work" – pleft Mar 28 '19 at 10:36

    yes, It is war file. I run it through 'tomcat7:run' – G.Brown Mar 28 '19 at 10:42
  • Please show the configuration of the tomcat7-maven-plugin? Are you using a context.xml to configure Tomcat? – Adriaan Koster Mar 28 '19 at 10:44
  • @G.Brown This command uses the `tomcat7-maven-plugin` which you stated that it works – pleft Mar 28 '19 at 10:45

    but it doesn't work on my tomcat server – G.Brown Mar 28 '19 at 10:50

    It is only working on maven embedded tomcat7, not in external tomcat server – G.Brown Mar 28 '19 at 11:04
  • Show us how you configure it to run on external tomcat – pleft Mar 28 '19 at 11:21

    at bottom of eclipse, I configured tomcat 9. Then, right click on project, Run As -> run on server – G.Brown Mar 28 '19 at 11:26
  • So this is mostly an `eclipse` based question. Please update your title and question body to reflect this. – pleft Mar 28 '19 at 11:35
