when using enpty aditionalClasspathDir tag in the the plugin settings and running the mvn tomcat7:run mojo I got the following nullpointer exception. I am currently learning how the whole plugin works. I got the initial plugin configuration from here: http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2/run-mojo-features.html I removed parts that are not applicable for my project but i kept the empty additionalClasspathDir as in the example: <additionalClasspathDirs> <additionalClasspathDir></additionalClasspathDir> </additionalClasspathDirs> When removing this section i did not get the exception anymore Null Pointer exception: [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.tomcat.maven:tomcat7-maven-plugin:2.0- beta-1:run (default-cli) on project ITA: Execution default-cli of goal org.apach e.tomcat.maven:tomcat7-maven-plugin:2.0-beta-1:run failed.
