Hi I am having some trouble deploying a project to my tomcat 6 server. I have spent the past couple hours searching through threads and i can see anyone with the same problem as me, so i can only assume its very basic. Normally this is not something i would be experimenting with (tomcat 6 and such) but I am an intern at a software development company and naturally everyone feels obliged to go out of their way to avoid providing any help other than telling me they were able to get the application running in 5 minutes. Anyway more to the point
My problem is that I am trying to deploy an Enterprise Application Project to my tomcat 6 server. I follow instructions on another website to set up my tomcat server and i belive its running properly (can get to it through localhost:8080) but i can’t seem to set it up right in myeclipse. What i did for set up was go to MyEclipse > Preferences > Enterprise Workbench > Servers > Tomcat > Tomcat 6.x, and manually set the paths to where my tomcat files are located. The server appears in the server tab, but I am unable to add deployments to it. This might not be an error with the setup, I am not entirely sure. But the one thing that really bothers me about this is that when i go to the “Project Deployments” window, none of my servers (the new one or the standard 2) are in there, only the Project i am trying to add is in the combobox, the grid view is blank however. Any ideas on what i am doing wrong/how to fix it?Hex21189,
You are trying to deploy an Enterprise Application to tomcat. You need use J2ee server(Application Server) to deploy this enterprise application.
If no application servers are configured, the list of servers will be empty when deploying an EAR application.I do know for sure that the tomcat 6 server is enabled, i’ve even been able to right click on it in the sever pane (the console area) and right click it to run. Also it does not appear in the sever drop down. I only get 3 options which i can’t remember off the top of my head, but i know that tomcat was not among them, and neither were the 2 standard servers that came with myeclipse
Think if found out the problem. I used remote desktop to play with their computers the other day while they were out, and it seems when you create a java project in their version of myeclipse it automatically changes the project to a web project with java face servlets (or something like that, i forgot the exact name.) I think it has something to do with the fact they are running version 7.1.1 and I am running 7.5. So more or less i have the problem figuered out. Any idea how to change the 7.5 to do this? or better yet, where i can find a copy of 7.1.1? (tried looking online but all i could find where pirated cracked copies, and ad websites pretending to host the install.)
Hex21189,
What is the exact error you are facing? Unless your error is clear to us, we will not be able to give you the right solution. Please answer my questions below –
1. What is you installation details? You can get it from MyEclipse menu – MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.
2. What are the server configurations? Can you attach screenshots? You can get it from MyEclipse menu – Window > Preferences > MyEclipse… > Servers (Hit the PM button to send screenshots, else send a mail to support@genuitec.com)What do you mean by this –
