Lost Servers folder in the Project Explorer window [message #510272] |

Well, I've made a stupid newbie error and deleted the Servers project folder from the Project Explorer window in Eclipse in the JavaEE perspective. I'm not familiar with Eclipse and did not know that it was necessary to have this folder in the Project Explorer window in order for Eclipse to control Tomcat from within the IDE. How can I set the IDE up to utilize a new Servers folder from Project Explorer?
Thanks,
Mark

I think you just need to re-set this up again.
1. Right-click in Package Explorer view, choose New...
2. Find and choose Server (you'll probably have to navigate through
Other, then down to Server).
3. Next...
4. (Assuming Tomcat is what you were using--don't know obviously, so
I'll assume that and you can apply the example to JBoss, GlassFish,
etc.) Open Apache and choose your favorite Tomcat poison (5.5, 6.0,
etc.--you only need to choose the top-level named Apache Tomcat 6.0.16
or whatever).
5. Click Browse and navigate to your installed Apache Software
Foundation Tomcat directory. You should probably allow the JRE to be
just the default one for the workbench.
6. Click Finish.
At this point, you might (not sure) need to respecify which server each
of your projects is using. Right-click on the project, choose
Properties, then Server to see if it's still set up. If it's not, I
don't know how to fix it--you'll have to play around. I only know how to
create the project new to use it.
Hope this helps,
