Tomcat 5.0 on Gentoo with WTP [message #115611] Sun, 03 July 2005 12:18 Go to next message

Hello,

how can i configure Eclipse Web Tools for Tomcat server on Gentoo ? Tomcat 5 on
Gentoo is installed in following way :

/usr/share/tomcat-5/bin
/usr/share/tomcat-5/common/endorsed
/usr/share/tomcat-5/common/lib
/usr/share/tomcat-5/lib
/usr/share/tomcat-5/server/lib
/usr/share/tomcat-5/server/webapps (standard webapps - admin, manager)
/var/lib/tomcat-5/default/conf
/var/lib/tomcat-5/default/logs
/var/lib/tomcat-5/default/temp
/var/lib/tomcat-5/default/webapps (other webapps)
/var/lib/tomcat-5/default/work

So, Tomcat 5 is divided into 2 parts and due this Eclipse says that any of two directories
(/usr/share/tomcat-5 or /var/lib/tomcat-5) is not valid Tomcat 5 installation directory.
It's somehow possible to make it work with WTP ? Or should i create special tomcat-5
installation just for development ?

Thanks

Frantisek Augusztin

Hi Frantisek,

Did you try with tomcat-plugin? http://www.sysdeo.com/eclipse/tomcatplugin
It would fix probs with appdeployment under your tomcat.

Thanks, but i wanted to use WTP. I resolved the problem with special instance
of Tomcat just for WTP. It's not the best solution, but it works.

Hi Frantisek,

You are welcome to an enhancement request in Bug database to see if you
can have your use case covered. Tomcat runtimes and servers don't
currently support separately specified catalina_home and catalina_base.
However, the default Tomcat server does run in this fashion, but
doesn't allow you to specify the catalina_base. It will appear under a
directory like ".metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp?".
If you create multiple servers from the same runtime, you will get
multiple "tmp?" directories, if that is in any way useful.

Cheers,
Larry
