Re: [m2e-users] Maven, Enunciate and debugging...
m2e-wtp is expected to honour the <webXml> configuration. If it doesn't, it's likely a bug; Best way to find out is for you to provide a sample  web project that reproduces the problem.

The reason why m2e-wtp doesn't rely on target/<warName> is because WTP is expected to incrementally deploy the web resources from the source directory as soon as they change. 
We have no way to know some extra plugin (enunciate or any similar plugin) is incremental-build-friendly and thus should be invoked whenever a web resource is changed, so the byproducts of that invocation could be deployed on the fly by WTP.
So, as I said explained earlier, a workaround is to make WTP explicitely aware of web resources built separately.

If m2e-wtp doesn't work for you, you can try Sonatype's webby as an alternative, but I have no idea if it'll work for your use case.

Yes I have m2e-wtp installed and I already have webXml defined as part of the maven-war-plugin.

The web.xml that is in the final assembly is correct.

Does that mean something is broken?  Should I really need yet another plugin in my POM for m2e to work correctly?

assuming you installed m2e-wtp, you'll need to tell it to add extra resources to WTP's deployment assembly.
Either make maven-war-plugin's <webXml> point to your gen'd web.xml or add the CLI built war directory as a web resource.
Since this is a m2e-specific workaround, you can define a m2e profile in your pom.xml like : 

<profile>
 <id>m2e</id>
 <activation>
   <property>
     <name>m2e.version</name>
   </property>
 </activation>
 <build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.3</version>
      <configuration>
        <webResources>
          <resource>
            <directory>target/<warName></directory>
            <includes><include>**/some.file.pattern</include></includes>
          </resource>
        </webResources>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>
</profile>

Okay, I switched and installed the latest Eclipse 4.2.1 Juno with all the latest and greatest m2e plugins and connectors.  I can build and deploy my enunciate-enabled service and the service endpoints seem to work, but it won't pull up the enunciate-generated documentation at the path "/index.html" nor the JavaMelody monitoring URL at the path "/monitoring".

I have index.html and rest.html listed in <welcome-file-list> as part of my stub web.xml and these settings are merged in the final web.xml but for some reason the app deployed via Eclipse doesn't seem to use the final web.xml.

I'm still assuming an issue with how Eclipse + m2e is handling the web.xml generated by enunciate.

The content of src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml has only the custom listeners and filters along with the <welcome-file-list>.  

In the enunciate.xml is configured to merge the contents of src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml with the generated settings.

The final web.xml is located in the WAR as well as the target/<warname>/WEB-INF/web.xml and looks correct.

If I deploy the WAR manually, it works fine, including all static resources and service endpoints.

Is there a setting I'm missing in Eclipse or M2E that determines how it handles the web.xml content?

I can't find the Maven Discovery option for Eclipse 3.7 Indigo.  I installed Juno 4.2.1 and found it there, but we have people using Indigo-based installs and can't find any Discovery or m2e plugins.

What am I missing?

Hi,

Did you also install the m2e-wtp integration that one normally uses with Maven WAR projects inside the Eclipse/m2e space.

If not try to install it through Window/Preferences/Maven/Discovery.

Though it could be a problem also with this integration that the web.xml is only present in the target folder.

But since I haven't yet used a setup like yours I'm not sure.

Regards,
Johannes

...you'd think that would be the case, but it doesn't seem to be unless I'm missing something.  :(  We do have m2e installed and we took a very straight forward Maven project and did the "Import as existing Maven project...".   

We could deploy and debug locally before I added enunciate.  

If I copy the contents of the web.xml that enunciate generated into src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml, it works fine.

The WAR file deploys to external servers and runs in Tomcat 6 just fine.

Just not within Eclipse environment.

If you've got m2e installed, then if Maven knows where the correct
web.xml file is then m2e will tell Eclipse where the correct web.xml
is ...
