Tomcat in Intellij Idea Community Edition

Is it possible to run a web application using Tomcat Server in Intellij Idea Community Edition?

I tried to find some information about it but haven't achived any success.

Solution

  • If you are using maven, you can use this command mvn tomcat:run, but first you add in your pom.xml this structure into build tag, just like this:

    <build>
    <finalName>mvn-webapp-test</finalName>
      <plugins>
          <plugin>
              <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
              <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
              <version>${maven.compiler.plugin.version}</version>
              <configuration>
                  <source>1.6</source>
                  <target>1.6</target>
              </configuration>
          </plugin>
      </plugins>
  </build>
