maven项目不拷贝jar文件的问题

被这个问题折磨了很久......

开发环境：win7/Eclipse/maven 2.2.1

问题描述：在Eclipse中使用Maven install命令打包，在发布时提示：An internal error occurred during: "Updating status for Tomcat v6.0 Server at localhost..."

进入workspace/.metadata/.log 查看日志，显示出错日志以下：

!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.jobs 4 2 2012-08-26 07:17:12.186
!MESSAGE An internal error occurred during: "Updating status for Tomcat v6.0 Server at localhost...".

几番波折，查找到 Eclipse 官方的 Bug 360256，错误信息比较一致，参见  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=360256 

不过 Eclipse 官方拒绝了这个 Bug ,回复为：“ Please report m2e-wtp integration issues to https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/MECLIPSEWTP”，从这儿却是看出，有多是 m2e-wtp 的问题；

检查 Eclipse 安装的插件，发现只有 m2e 的插件，没有 m2e-wtp 的，从新安装 m2e-wtp （ http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/m2eclipse-wtp/）问题解决。
