Problem is that there is some rivalry between the netbeans/eclipse+wtp
people so every lobby sticks with their own technologies (same thing
with JBoss if you ask me, otherwise we'd have JBoss4 as a server
definition and webservices support for it) and I'm getting a bit sick of
it. We need a better consensus with all major players not separate
workshops that produce forks or live in crystal palaces or different
dimensions.

It sure would be nice if we could all row in the same direction - but we
all have different short lists...

Afaik it is user demand and what the main developers know that spawns
activity, not lobbying and the beauty with open source it that you can
fix the situation yourself!

Sure, however you are forgetting that the WTP has one set of goals and
make decisions based on them. Most main dev's for WTP are from IBM or
BEA and they have their container and technologies to push so they are
biest. JBoss is doing a fork in JBossIDE and Sun is pushing NetBeans.
Sure in the end open source allows a fix for the situation (but I'd like
to see if it'll get merged back into WTP as main dev's control it) but
my rant was on the communities not the platform, WTP is great, I like it
and use it extensively.

I take my rant back (just a little bit), good job guys!
Does anyone knows if the eclipse plugin supports development of
WebServices with WTP?

Assuming Eclipse can create JSR 109 compliant J2EE archives (it should), then it should work, no? :-)
Any pointers on Eclipse tutorials to create EJB and Servlet based 109 Web Services?

The just shortly before WTP 1 (!) released book on 0.7 by Chris Judd (of Judd Solutions, not one of JLo's ex-husbands ;-) ) and Hakeem Shittu also contains a WTP extension for JBoss 4.

http://www.apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=447
(if you can download the plugin without purchasinc the book, I am not sure, but give it a try, and unless you mind the slightly outdated WTP version, the book can be helpful as well)

Hope, they might update it to use WTP 1, or somebody else does? After Open Source pioneers like Apache have released Geronimo extensions (still a bit buggy, or it is WTP1?) and even Sun has a GlassFish plugin, there seems to be support gathering from quite a few key players?

I just would not bet on the rather provocative example from Chris' book above that <b>Microsoft</b> provided any IIS plugin too soon ;-)

Great, thanks.
I got trace of it from elsewhere in this portal as some article on Cactus, WTP and JBoss used it, too.

With "they" I referred to the authors of the book.
Maybe if you or David, or somebody else might get in touch with them, in case they do a new edition of the book? It might be a nice "academic" work for them, to do the same task, but having one "official" extension for WTP and a particular server seems sufficient. Unless one is really buggy and nobody cares about fixing it ;-)

The problem is that it doesn't seam to work. At least not for glassfish
that it is mainly aimed for.

When you start the server from inside Eclipse, you get a popup saying:
"Server GlassFish Java EE 5 failed to start"

In reality the server starts but it still reports its status in eclipse
as stopped. I use glassfish build 35, Sun JDK1.5_06, Fedora Core 4 Linux.

Any suggestions?

Uno Engborg

It works for me, so:

Check the port number (defaut to 8080) when you registered the GlassFish server in Eclipse WTP.
Eclipse WTP is doing a ping to this address to see it there is someone responding (anyone).
If your GlassFish config is not using 8080, delete this Server in Eclipse, and re-run the add server wizard.
Make sure you enter the correct port number there.

(see bitmap number 3 on
https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/specifications/introdu ction.html

)

A ui/editor for this will be there very soon.
Thanks for the feedback and let us know how it goes...

ho I see you are using Linux.

WTP 1.0 has not been tested on Linux at all
(see Eclipse bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=121415)

This will be addressed in WTP 1.0.1

Another issue we are facing on Linux is:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=123489

Please vote for it... We are trying to do a workaround...
For now, try to add a
sleep 5

at the end of the shell script called:

(GLASSFISHINSTALLDIR)/bin/asadmin


The list of blocking bugs for the GlassFish is published under
https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/Eclipse/CurrentBugs.ht ml

You can help by woting for these bugs.

Done!

Thanks! That worked, at least partly.

The annoying dialog goes away but the server status is still reported as
stopped in Eclipse, even though the server actually have started.

Do you have any idea if this could be a result of the same bug, or is
there yet another problem.

Use J2EE Runtime under Basic for SunAppServer. It should work for you. Other good Idea is to install https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/files/documents/3651/2 6924/glassfish-eclipse-plugin_installer_0_1.jar.

Other good Idea to work with Sun RI Server is Netbeans. Sun is providing a Integrated Netbeans-Sun Application Sever installation. Once you install this , the Sun Application RI 1.4 comes build in.

If you have any queries you can reach me at srinivasarao.gurram@gmail.com or skypeme at gurram_s.

No idea so far, but from my current analysis, the issue is really inside WTP 1.0

See same issue for WebSphere Server in this thread:
http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/m91985781.html

It really seems that the WTP 1.0 framework has not been tested on all the platforms for all the bundled server definitions (jboss, oracle, websphere, bea,...)

I could not find also a detailled test plan on the Eclipse WTP web site.
Wierd...

Hi,
The GlassFish Plugin for Eclipse -milestone 2- is out: get if from:
https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/download/

It is known to work with both WTP 1.0 and latest WTP 1.0.1 builds, on Windows XP and Linux as well...
Target servers are: Sun Application Server 8.1 and 8.2 and latest GlassFish Application Server builds.

Thanks for your feedback.
