Hi,

I posted my stack dump in an open bug report on bugs.eclipse.org ( Bug 318492) - but have not heard anything, so I figured I'd ask here if anyone knows of a work around.

Using:

Eclipse: Helios Release 20100617-1415
Tomcat: 6.0.28
Java: JDK 1.6.0_21 X64
Startup Command Line: start eclipse.exe -data ..\..\Data\WorkSpace -vm
..\jdk\bin\javaw -vmargs -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M
OS: Windows 7 Enterprise

I've setup a tomcat 6 server, and want to serve up my web application - if I check off "Serve modules without publishing" it thinks for a while, and then displays the error "Publishing to <myprojectname...> has encountered a problem. Could not publish server configuration: null."

The stack dump is:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.core 4 0 2010-08-02 17:34:06.425
!MESSAGE Could not publish server configuration: null.

This is similar to old errors when people said that "localhost" was not set in the server.xml file - but I check that, and it is not the problem. Anyone know of a work-around for this OTHER than un-checking Serve Modules without publishing? That too has problems (every time it tries to republish, it fails because it thinks files are locked, so I always have to clean and republish - which takes a good 4-5 minutes with an app our size.

This bug is killing me, and figured I'd check here before I roll back to the previous version of eclipse which did not have this problem.

Thanks all!

Ken
