bmuschko/gradle-tomcat-plugin — Issue #24: tomcatRun doesn't do anything

When building our application and doing a tomcatRun the server responds with a message that it is available however the application isn't started (the Spring DispatcherServlet is not being started no logging etc.).

Doing a tomcatRunWar however seems to start the application but when entering the URL we are greeted with a nice 404, we also don't see any logging that the request is being received by the dispatcher servlet.

Tomcat 7.0.26, plugin 0.9, gradle m8a. We are building a Servlet 3.0 XMLless application so only annotations.
