Hello!
I’ve a web application, running on a external tomcat 6.0 (OS Vista, Myeclipse 7.0M2)
When I start tomcat, console is not activating (not switching to console, no tomcat output to console).
What’s happening?

Thanks in advance.

You want MyEclipse console to show the messages from the external tomcat? You will have to configure the tomcat to run from within MyEclipse. You need to go to Windows > Prefs > MyEclipse > Servers > Tomcat and set the connector and run Tomcat from within MyEclipse.

yes I know.
With eclipse 3.3 I had no problem working this way.
But now (configuration details at the end of this post) I often start tomcat but console it’s not activated, and tomcat log it’s not showed.
When I have this problem, I have also can’t switch on the debug perspective (eclipse stays idle).
Thanks in advance

nikoligno,
Can you switch to a new workspace (File > Switch Workspace > Temp) and check if the issue persists.

Also, can you go to MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Detail and paste the information here for me.

I have the same issue and even after creating a new workspace, deploying and starting Tomcat 6 it still doesn’t log to the Console. Very randomly once in a great while it will work.

Ubuntu 8.10 – 64bit
JDK 1.5.0_16 (Used for Eclipse)
JDK 1.6.0_11 (Project Use)

gcstang,
Can you go to MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details and paste the information here for me. Also, please provide us with any additional information on this issue if you could.

I believe its the 64 bit OS thats causing the issue but I’ll ask the dev team to look into this.

Hey guys,

We’ve been seeing this ourselves, but we’ve also seen this with just vanilla eclipse and it not switching to the console for normal java program launches. We will be keeping our eyes open.

nikoligno,

When the correct console output isn’t focused, if you use the process-selector for the console view and manually focus the correct output, does that work for you? (see screenshot)

There are also some preferences pertaining to this setting under the Debug/Run > Console view as well (see other screenshot), do you have those set?
