This is mentioned in the Tomcat FAQ [1]. If you aren't able to download
a binary version of Tomcat 6.0.18 from the Apache site, then you can use
the following workaround.
Add the following system property to end of the eclipse.ini file or to
the startup arguments for your Eclipse.
-Dorg.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.core.verify60install=lib/jas per-el.jar,lib/servlet-api.jar|[servletapi6].jar,bin/bootstr ap.jar,conf,webapps
The value shown duplicates what WTP Tomcat support is using to validate
the Tomcat6 installation. The "lib/servlet-api.jar|[servletapi6].jar"
means it expects to find "lib/servlet-api.jar" or
"lib/[servletapi6].jar". Obviously those that created the Tomcat
package changed some things from prior packages. Check in the "lib"
folder to see what the link is to tomcat6-servlet-2.5-api-6.0.18.jar and
update that "file spec" in the setting. Update any other "file specs"
that also fails.
If you can tell me what the new links are, I'll see about adding them to
the list.
Cheers,
Larry
