Tomcat 7 - Maven Plugin not working why?

When trying to use automatic deployment in tomcat, I get the following error

The project com.tradair.tnet:tnet:1.0-SNAPSHOT (c:\tradair\sources\java\pom.xml) has 1 error
'dependencies.dependency.version' for org.apache.tomcat.maven:tomcat7-maven-plugin:jar must be a valid version but is '${mavenVersion}'. @ line 229, column 16

How do I fix this org.apache.tomcat.maven:tomcat7-maven-plugin:jar issue?

I'm guessing you've declared your plugin dependency as follows:

  <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
  <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>${mavenVersion}</version>

Have you set a value for the property mavenVersion?

Maven is telling your that the version part is missing. What version of the plugin do you wish to use? Specify it. Something like:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
  <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>1.2.3</version>                       <<< Some version number
  <executions>
