Aslak Knutsen closed ARQ-574.
-----------------------------

         Assignee: Aslak Knutsen
    Fix Version/s: tomcat_1.0.0.Final
       Resolution: Won't Fix


If we want this as a feature of Arquillian, it should be dealt with on a different level, not by the individual container adaptors. A Container adaptors responsibilities are start/stop/deploy/undeploy.

> When starting up tomcat6-managed, the first SNAPSHOT, I get this:
> {code}
> Either CATALINA_HOME environment variable or catalinaHome property in Arquillian configuration must be set and point to a valid directory! null is not valid directory!
> {code}
> There are 2 problems with this:
> - it's a maintenance hurdle, especially on hudson build slaves
> - the build is not reproducible: the test results depends on the tomcat server version you've installed on your machine.
> Solution:
> Set the tomcat zip as a dependency (so it's in ~/.m2/repository) and unzip it to target and use that server installation.
