Hi, I just rebuilt my machine after a crash and installed myeclipseide again. When trying to start tomcat I get the above error. Any Ideas?

Eclipse Platform
Version: 3.0.0
Build id: 200406251208

[Scott Anderson]

Can you please post all the information we request in the [URL=http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-393.html]Posting Guidelines[/URL] thread at the top of this forum? That will give us some context so that we can determine if this is an installation issue, a configuration problem, or a bug. Thanks.

It may have helped if the answer was posted to this. I a getting the exact same error report. Everything has been working fine for weeks, my trial license has not expired yet. This happens when I try to start Tomcat 5.0 from within Eclipse 3.0.2.

output from eclipse console when I try to start:

It always stops right there. I have to manually kill the javaw.exe process holding up port 80 each time I retry.

Please tell me how you resolved this. Thanks!

For the instances of Tomcat that aren’t starting, can you start them from the commandline, outside of MyEclipse? That will let us know if the issue is with the Tomcat installation or the connection between Tomcat and MyEclipse. And, I still need *all* the information from the posting guidelines. 🙂

[PMann]

Not sure what you mean by “instances of Tomcat that aren’t starting” I only assume 1 instance meaning 1 thread per port for HTTP, SSL, ADMIN, etc.

Here is what I have…

What operating system and version are you running?
WinXP Pro

What Eclipse version and build id are you using? (Help > About Eclipse Platform)
Version: 3.0.2
Build id: 200503110845

– Was Eclipse freshly installed for MyEclipse?
No, MyEclipse was installed just after I installed Eclipsed…weeks ago, no reinstalls since then.

– If not, was it upgraded to its current version using the update manager?
No

– Are any other external plugins installed?
How do I know it’s “external”? I use JUnit with Eclipse so that may be
the only one.

– How many plugins in the <eclipse>/plugins directory are like org.eclipse.pde.*
8

What MyEclipse version are you using? (Help > About Eclipse Platform > Features)
Providers are Eclipse.org …all v3.0.2 and Genuitec, LLC … all v 3.8.4

What JDK version are you using to run Eclipse? (java -version)
1.4.2_08 and J2EE 1.3.1

What JDK version are you using to launch your application server?
1.4.2_08

What steps did you take that resulted in the issue?
Not sure, but it happened after I committed some files to a remote CVS.

What application server are you using?
I installed Sun MicroSystems app server 1.4.2 for a couple of deployment test, but I don’t really need it.

Are there any exceptions in the Eclipse log file? (<workspace>/.metadata/.log) Yes, but the errors are timestamped hours after I started having the problem. The exceptions are consistent with incorrect importing of libs during deployment.

Thanks

Will Tomcat start if you undeploy your project and ensure everything has been removed under the Tomcat instance? If it will start, will it start from the commandline as well as from the Tomcat connector? If Tomcat won’t start, even without your application installed, then something has happened to affect your Tomcat installation and you’ll likely need to reinstall it.

Not sure, but it happened after I committed some files to a remote CVS.

Interesting. If Tomcat can start as above, can you deploy a minimal web project and still have Tomcat start? If so, can you create a new web project, copy your existing project’s files into it, deploy it, and start Tomcat successfully?

Also using j2ee 1.3.1 and log4j plugins.

Tomcat starts and I can see tomcat5.exe in the process list but I cannot hit any of the pages, cannot stop the service from Eclipse. I modify web.xml to include servlets and services, but took that all out to “undeploy” them and tried again and got the same thing.

When I do a hard-shutdown, I have to kill the javaw.exe that holds up port 80 AND stop Tomcat.exe.

To add to my previous post:

Also seeing this on occasion in my stdout.txt file…

For those of you looking at this far from now …

Apparently there is no solution to this that myself or anyone in support could find. I had to reinstall.
