Ross Gardler commented on FOR-735:
----------------------------------

The problem is simply that the plugins are not located in the war file in a 
place Forrest expects to find them. They are not downloaded when running a war, 
ony when building a war. And even then they are only downloaded if they are not 
already present on the local machine (either in build or in the plugins src 
directory.

> Plugins are not correctly deployed in webapp mode
