How to include a remote tomcat? [message #708910] Wed, 03 August 2011 09:25 Go to next message

For my current project I'd like to link my code to my tomcat for hot swapping.

Now I go File --> New --> Other... and then Server --> Server and after that I choose Apache Tomcat v6.0. So far so good. But my problem is clearly stated by sentence beneath the server selection: "Publishes and runs J2EE and Java EE Web projects and server configurations to a local Tomcat server."

Sure enough, in the following dialog I can only choose a local tomcat or download and install one. But what I really want to do, is to use the tomcat on my openSUSE server in the next room.

Can anybody tell me how to accomplish that? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not certain you can do this (so far, I've not tried). Typically, one
runs and debugs using a local Tomcat, then exports the project as a WAR
file to be dropped into a (remote, running, whatever) Tomcat (via scp in
your case).

However, the best forum for this question is Eclipse web tools rather
than newcomers. You might also examine the Eclipse/Tomcat FAQ at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_Tomcat_FAQ.
