Hi,

I have gotten to the stage where I am defining the various deployments we have. That is 1 local Tomcat (my machine), 1 staging Tomcat server and 1 production Tomcat server.

I have been able to setup my local Tomcat as a <Custom Location> and is

Quote:

c:\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\ROOT

I am trying to add the staging server as

Quote:

f:\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\ROOT

but I am being told I cannot do this with a message

Quote:

Exploded location overlaps an existing deployment

I made sure that I deleted the webapps folder on F: first.

Could anyone explain why it thinks the deployments are overlapping, when clearly the drives are totally separate.

Also, is it not possible to have multiple Tomcat application servers, or at least different ones per project? I only can see how to specify the Tomcat installation in the Window > Preference rather than Project preference, and we run different Tomcats for different projects.

Best wishes. ADC.

ADC,
Currently the deployment setup and configuration is archaic and only allows 1 Project : 1 Server mapping. We are aware of this shortcomming and will be completely replacing all this for our 5.0 release in late August. Sorry for the inconvenience until then, it isn't a small task.

Okidokes, will use deploy for my local development, and continue to use Ant for deploying across to staging and prod until MyEclipse can help me out :) No worries!

Cheers, ADC.

Hm... 3 years later I still seem to be unable to run multiple Tomcat 4 servers.

florianf,

On the "Launch" sub-preference for a connector, you can create a Launch configuration for any server and configure as many as you want. You can then launch your servers from the Run or Debug menus.

I am using My Eclipse 9.0, and have this problem . Is there a solution?

buddy21,

Can you give us some more information ?

1. Can you please copy paste the Installation Details from MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Install Details ?

2. Did you use the "Launch" configuration as suggested in the previous reply ? If no, can you please give it a try ?

3. How are you trying to set the server ? Please give us steps in detail on how you are trying to set the server for us to help replicate the issue at our end.
