The selection did not contain anything that can be run on a server [message #334640]

Hello,

trying to run an application by pressing [Ctrl][F11] sometimes I get the
error message
The selection did not contain anything that can be run on a server
This error message also occurs, when there is nothing selected.
When I repeat to press [Ctrl][F11] the application is launched successfully.

On which circumstances appears that error message after pressing
[Ctrl][F11], i. e. what is the reason for this error?
How can this error message be avoided?
Currently I use Eclipse 3.3.2.

Have a look at the Run/Debug->Launching->Launch Operation preferences. That
should explain you. I set it to "Always launch the previously launched
application". It works well for me
