I'm using the latest -> MyEclipse for Spring Version 9.0 and I didn't added any plug-ins. It's not working out of the box.

sebtardif,

Sorry that you have this problem with MyEclipse Spring.

Can you answer some more questions for me to understand the issue better ?

1) How did you install MyEclipse for Spring ? Is it through Pulse/All-In-One installer/ Archived Update site?

2) What kind of a project is it? Are you importing it to your workspace from elsewhere?

3) Did the project deployments ever work before ? Is it the first time you are trying to deploy project with MyEclipse Spring 9 ?

4) Start the IDE with -clean, switch to a new workspace, create a sample project and check if you see the same issue when deploying to MyEclipse Tomcat. Here is an FAQ on -clean : http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-10280.html

Let me know how this works for you.

I can upload the project to the forum if I find the way to do so.

I only installed this: myeclipse-9.0a-offline-installer-windows.exe

I imported the project using Import -> Maven Project -> pom.xml

Deployment work with Spring STS and standalone Eclipse.

I will look at your page about clean. My workspace was clean, I tried many new workspace.

I could debug your code if you provide a "debug" switch to start the IDE, but I guess since you are the only Java library I have seen that do not keep the line number you probably don't have any attempt to facilitate ways for the community to fix your bugs.

sebtardif,

Sorry you are running into this issue and the late response. On the line numbers, a few of projects around the MyEclipse core are thus protected due to licensing concerns; we are certainly one of the most pirated IDEs out there. I agree it would help in this case though, thanks for offering to help debug.

Is a WebTools dynamic web project which you have imported into MyEclipse? Or is this a regular Maven project that you have been working on outside the IDE. I have a few questions and suggestions:

1) Use the MyEclipse > Enhance WTP Project menu action on the project to see if it fixes the issue.

2) Send us your project at support@myelcipseide.com ATTN Brian with a link to this thread, that will allow me to examine your project directly and see what is going wrong/put a fix in.

3) Create a new MyEclipse Web project and enable Maven support. Copy your resources into this project, including the pom.xml, that will make this a MyEclipse web project which will not have issues reading deployment data.
I realize this is cumbersome but we have some defects around the *import* of Maven projects which we will be fixing in the MyEclipse 10 release.

I apologize for the inconvenience caused.
