Hello!
This has probably been asked before but searching for Tomcat through the forums yields hundreds of results.
My problem is that when I start MyEclipse 6.5.1, the external Tomcat 6.0.18 that I have configured doesn’t show in the Servers view. It only does when I click on the Configure icon there and then browse to the Tomcat configuration in the dialog.
I run on XP with the MyEclipse-All-in-One installer. I think that also happened in 6.0. How can I fix this?
You create a custom launch configuration and it is not showing up under the server view? Im not sure what do you mean be “External Tomcat” not showing up. Could you please rephrase the question for me.
Hi!
Sorry for not being precise. I have not created custom launch configurations, I use the standard, built-in Tomcat support of MyEclipse.
In the Servers view, there is a Configure button which opens the MyEclipse Database / Explorer preferences. Under Servers, you can either use the Integrated Sandbox (which includes a MyEclipse version of Tomcat) or you just select Tomcat where you then have version 4, 5 and 6. Now for each of those Tomcat versions, you need to point to an (from MyEclipse’s point of view) external Tomcat directory. And that’s what I have – my Tomcat 6.0.18 configured through that dialog as an Tomcat server, not the one that’s part of the sandbox.
My problem is that the Tomcat server I have defined there isn’t shown in the Servers view when I start up MyEclipse. It only shows up when I push the Configure button and in the preferences browse down to Tomcat.
I recorded a little video: http://screencast.com/t/DnuGF1wly5h
Thank you for uploading the video. This is a very strange problem. Have you tried using the -clean to try and fix this issue?

Hi!
I figured it out. It wasn’t the “-clean”, it was my configuration – for whatever reason, I had Tomcat 6 support disabled for start-up under “Preferences – General – Startup”. Once I enabled it, Tomcat showed up just fine on startup.
