Maven EAR Plugin ContextRoot
I'm following the instructions here to set the context-root for my web
modules as specified here:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-ear-plugin/examples/customizing-context-root.html
It seems to have no effect on the generated application.xml, the
context-root still has the default values. I couldn't find any mention of
this problem. Can anyone else indicate if this works or not in the current
release of the maven-ear-pluging (2.3.1)?

Somehow I'd gone all this time without noticing that I was missing the
<modules> level of the configuration. Thanks for verifying that it did work
so that I re-examined my pom more closely. Apologies for the mistake.

It is working with both 2.3.1 and the trunk. I've just tried on a
stupid project that I have for testing and it worked. Can you maybe
post your pom.xml file?
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-ear-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3.1</version>
<configuration>
<modules>
<webModule>
<groupId>root.project.servlets</groupId>
<artifactId>servlet</artifactId>
<contextRoot>/foobar</contextRoot>
</webModule>
</modules>
</configuration>
</plugin>

I don't see anything in the source code that looks like it gets the
contextRoot from the configuration. The one method that mentions it 1)
checks for null, and then sets it to the default if it's still null, even
though the constructor initializes it the default, 2) that method
(resolveArtifact) is never called.
I don't really understand how nested configuration elements like this are
supposed to be set. I'd be willing to try to debug the issue further if I
knew where to start.

Take a look at the source code:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-ear-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/ear/WebModule.java?revision=728546&view=markup
If I were you, I'd debug that class/method in an IDE or add some
System.out's to see what's going on during the execution of the code.
(This assumes you pull down the entire plugin and rebuild it with a
new version eg 2.3.99 which you'd build and install locally, and then
specify it in your pom.xml file -- make sure you delete it later!)
Without doing that, I'm not sure if there's a bug here or not.

For now I've worked around the issue by using the applicationXml
configuration to point to my own application.xml with the context-root being
set, instead of using the generated one. I'd still like to know if this is
just broken for everyone, or if there's something I'm missing so I can
decide how to file a bug.
