[WTP 1.0RC5] Deploy on Tomcat 5.5 [message #152821]

Hello,

i'm trying to deploy a dynamic web application on Tomcat 5.5 and i'm unable
to deploy application to server.

For clean testing i created a new empty web application and results are same
as with my own webapp :
1) Right click on project > Run As > Run on Server = No launchable artifact
could be found in the selection.
2) Servers view > right click on server > Add and Remove projects = There
are no projects that can be added or removed from the server.

Now i want to know, how to deploy webapp to Tomcat 5.5 ?

Thanks

I've had this problem a few times, mostly w/ RC4. I've found that just
deleting the tomcat server and re-creating it + adding the project to it
solved the problem. I'm sure there's an easier way or even a good
explanation but this seemed to solve it for me.

Since upgrading to RC5 I haven't had this problem (yet).

Problem is still there. Deleted server from Servers view, from Server >
Installed runtimes and completly deleted all files/directories
from .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core. After that i recreated
the new server via Servers view. Still no way to add Dynamic Web Project to
this server.

What version of Tomcat are you using? I'm using 5.5.12 and it is working
flawlessly for me (since deleting, re-creating, and updating to RC5.)

I too am a Gentoo user and had the exact same problem. However, removing
Tomcat and re-configuring it and re-adding the project to it completely
got rid of this problem for me.

If it were me, I'd probably try creating a new web project and adding the
files from your existing project to it. However, this may not be the best
way to go. All I can tell you is that I'm no longer having this problem
on Linux or Windows.

If you reread my first post this was first thing i tried. Now i tried it
again after deleting server and result is still same - no possibility to
deploy it via WTP.

If you're having issues with the Tomcat within Gentoo, I'd recommend
just grabbing a binary copy from apache's site and just unzipping it to
a directory instead of using emerge. We're currently trying to rework a
lot of the J2EE stuff in Gentoo.

Sorry for the hassle. This maybe a Gentoo issue :/

Hopefully you've got this solved, but, if not, there is one part of this=
"delete and re-define"
procedure you didn't mention explicitly ... the times I've had to do thi=
s, I found it helpful,
after deleting from preferences (server runtimes), the Servers Project, =
and the servers view ...
I shutdown and restarted eclipse. That shutdown and restart seemed requi=
red to really get rid of it.
Then, once that done,
I could redefine and use just fine. I'll admit, though, I haven't had th=
is problem for a while,
so if you ever find what it is, or have a reproducable scenerio, please =
open a bug.

I was never unable to use WTP with Tomcat installed via Gentoo (by the way,
there is no Tomcat 5.5.12 in portage ;-). I always used the binary copy
from apache.

I will try the delete, restart eclipse, recreate procedure ASAP.

Still doesn't work. What i see :
1) when i open the project, it jumps to "Dynamic Web Projects" in Project Explorer.
2) in Project properties:
a) Server :
This project cannot be deployed to a server.
b) Project Facets :
Dynamic Web Module 2.4
Java 5.0 (tried 1.4 too, no change)
c) Java build path :
I. my own libraries
II. JRE System Library [sun-jdk-1.5.0.06] - lists JDK JAR-s
III. Tomcat v5.5 runtime - lists basic JAR-s from Tomcat
IV. Web App Libraries [cedep] - this contains only the "Access rules" entry
3) in Servers view there is a Tomcat v5.5 Server@localhost, but no Dynamic Web Project can be added.

I will try later with a clean Eclipse instance, maybe conflict with some plugin.

Ok, it looks like complete cleanup of features/plugins (now only EMF, GEF,
XSD and WTP are present) it can finally deploy apps to Tomcat 5.5. Thanks
to all for helping me, this is soo weird issue.

Maybe until this feature is implemented you will always have to use a
standard apache binary distribution of tomcat.

I had once this problem and after some tests, I found out it was because I was trying to use a JDK 1.4 with Tomcat 5.5. I had no error messages or anything, my project was just no there. But it appeared as soon as I changed to JDK 1.5. Maybe you are having the same issue.

Nope. I allways use JDK 1.5 (as stated in my another post, i use Sun JDK
1.5.0_06).

<modules>
<module moduleId="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.server:TestWebProject"
serverId="1_5_06_8_47_AM1"/>
</modules>

Deleteing the referance resolved the problem for me.
