Double check your <tomee.home>/conf/server.xml file and ensure it has the TomEE
ServerListener:
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">
<!-- TomEE plugin for Tomcat -->
<Listener className="org.apache.tomee.catalina.ServerListener" />
I've seen it be the case where a project was originally setup with plain Tomcat
and then Tomcat deleted from the file system and TomEE unpacked in the same
directory. The trick is the server.xml in the project will be from Tomcat and
not TomEE. This is actually just fine, we only add the one listener, so
generally adding that listener to the server.xml being used in the project is
enough.
