Is there a way of getting this to work? We have a Maven project that depends on Apache's commons-email. We use JNDI to look up a mail Session. We use the following in our POM:
<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <failOnMissingWebXml>false</failOnMissingWebXml> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId> <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2</version> <configuration> <contextFile>tomcat/context.xml</contextFile> <port>9000</port> <path>/foo</path> <fork>true</fork> <extraDependencies> <extraDependency> <groupId>javax.mail</groupId> <artifactId>mail</artifactId> <version>1.4</version> </extraDependency> <extraDependency> <groupId>javax.activation</groupId> <artifactId>activation</artifactId> <version>1.1.1</version> </extraDependency> </extraDependencies> </configuration> <executions> <execution> <id>start</id> <goals> <goal>run-war-only</goal> </goals> <phase>pre-integration-test</phase> </execution> <execution> <id>shutdown</id> <goals> <goal>shutdown</goal> </goals> <phase>post-integration-test</phase> </execution> </executions> </plugin> Deployment fails with the following: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.mail.Session I have both mail and activation listed in the POM's dependencies with a scope of provided. Is further magic required? Thanks, James
