Hi,

I have installed a trial version of MyEclipse 2.5.1 over Eclipse 2.1.1.
Trying to configure it to be able to start WL7 from within MyEclipse.

Tried to follow your instructions for WL7 configuration.
When I try to start WL from the menu, getting error:
"A Configuration Error occured during startup.
Please verify the preferences field with the prompt WLS JDK name."

Same with default one (JDK1.3.1) and if pointing to folder:
c:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.1_01 or
c:\j2sdk1.4.1_01\jre

Do I need to point to "bin" directory under it ?
Anything else to check ?

Thank you in advance,
Oleg.

P.S.:
It would be nice if I can see where exactly I am pointing to,
i.e. something like "Properties" or "Edit" in addition to Add
on Weblogic 7 JDK screen.

Weblogic as well as all other appservers need to be run by a full JDK VM, not a JRE as your info indicates. The issue is that a JRE does not include a Java compiler which the appservers required to support dynamic compiled resources such as JSPs and EJB proxies.

Try pointing the appserver's JDK preference to the top-level directory of a full JDK installation. In your case try pointing the JDK preference to /jdk1.[3|4].x folder. Do not specify the jre subdirectory.

See the help topic, Concepts > Application Server Connectors for background info: http://myeclipseide.com/enterpriseworkbench/help/index.jsp
