Redundant vmargs getting added during deploy [message #225591]

Hi all,

I'm using Eclipse 3.4.1 with Tomcat 6. I have set up a Tomcat launch
configuration and everything is starting up nicely. However sometimes (not
always) some generated vm-args are added to the launch config during
run/debug, although the arguments have already been added. Over time this
turns into somthing like this:

-Dcatalina.home="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat"
-Djava.endorsed.dirs="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat\endorsed"
-Dcatalina.base="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat"
-Dcatalina.home="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat"
-Djava.endorsed.dirs="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat\endorsed"
-Dcatalina.base="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat"
-Dcatalina.home="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat"
-Djava.endorsed.dirs="C:\Agetor3\jakarta-tomcat\endorsed"
etc. etc.

Has anybody else seen this type of behavior and better yet, how to get rid
of it ;)

Cheers,

Michael

I've heard rare reports of this. However it has tended to disappear by
creating a new server and discarding the misbehaving one. Something
strange prevents the code that "merges" these settings from functioning
correctly. So far, I haven't been able to figure out the cause just by
code inspection. What would help to diagnose this would be to place the
server's ".launch" file (found in
<workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.debug.core/.launches ") in a
zip and attach it to a bug report. By putting it in a zip, I can be a
little more certain that I will get the file without any characters
being modified. File the bug against WTP ServerTools as the product and
"jst.server" as the component.

Cheers,
Larry

I had it happen. I think it was when I was fooling with the server
settings. I made several changes (individually), then back again, to
see the behaviour difference.

And I noticed that the argument list kept growing.

Since I stopped making config changes, the list has not grown.
