Thank you. In all other places when trying to create a WAR from Maven they suggested
this in the POM.xml
<plugin>

<version>2.4</version>
<configuration>


</configuration>
</plugin>

But in my project this was changing everything to a state that the WAR was build ok, but then nothing happen in TomCat. On the other hand if you run this in Eclipse with "Run on Server" everything was working ok, pointing me to the war-plugin.

Than I saw your code is just
<plugin>

<version>3.0.0</version>
</plugin>

So no configurations, just as is. And the version but i used the 2.4 version and the WAR was able to run on TomCat 9.

So thank again.
