I’m using Myeclipse 5.1.1GA, Tomcat 5.5, on a new machine with Vista.

Deployments do not work.

Symptoms:

When creating an exploded deployment to the Tomcat webapps folder, I get an error box with no text. Thereafter, the deployment is visible, but attempting to redeploy gets a flash of the progress box, and a deployment successful message in the text box at the botom of the deployment window. No files are deployed.

Attempting to deploy a war gets me nothing on the creation of the deployment, and thereafter I get an error that the project could not be redeployed because the previous version could not be removed in teh undeploymnet phase.

If i start and restart Eclipse, all of the deployments vanish.

I suspect a permissions issue. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
J

J,
Where did you put tomcat? With Vista’s new permission mode it’s entirely possible that you are spot-on, and it’s a permission issue.

I would encourage anyone on Vista to treat it like Linux or a Mac and create a C:\Users\<LOGIN NAME>\Applications folder where they install apps they need full perms to.

It’s important to note that on Vista, C:\Program Files is now a protected location.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Tomcat 5.5 as specified and I still get the same behavior.

I’mm be experimenting with the permissions to see if i can find out the problem.

Suggestions are welcome…

Where does your workspace live? That could also be a problem.

Additionally is this a normal web project? Are you using the deployment tool from the toolbar to deploy to Tomcat? You are sure you aren’t using Sysdeo’s tomcat plugin for example?

Also does your project give you any build errors? Did you try refreshing it from the root and cleaning it?

Any errors in the log file (<workspace dir>\.metadata\.log) that might shine on light on the deployment failing?

Interesting that this just popped up on another machine with an identical load, except it has WinXP SP2.

I also can deploy another project successfully on the XP machine.

The load is the MyEclipse combined Eclipse/MyEclipse package only, no other plug-ins.

Here’s the stack trace. Obviously, I’m missing something in the configuration.

Please see my last post for questions and suggestions.

Same problem to me….
And nothing to find in the .log File.

Hi veskale,
Have you tried using the -clean command to clean your workspace?
