When trying to deploy the JSF login demo, I repeatedly got the messgae that...

"Deployment is out of date due to the changes in the projects underlying contents. You'll need to manually redeploy the project to update the deployed project."

------------------------------

Huh?

If I edit the userLogin.jsp (or the Bean, etc.) and save it, it updates the production Tomcat folder successfully.

If I delete the JSPLoginDemo folder under Tomcat and then redeploy it works OK.

I've also tried to remove the redeployment item in MyEclipse, re-add it and try again.

The error seems to occur if I make a change to a file or two and try to redeploy the whole project (after saving) I get the error message above.

Is this an already-identifed problem that will be fixed in 4.1?

Am I doing something incorrectly?

Thanks in advance.

Mork,
This is a problem reported by the Eclipse platform when a resource it currently is aware of in a projec, changes state without it being notified (for example, it's timestamp changes, size, etc.). This is almost alawys caused by a) running Ant scripts that execute externally to the Eclipse process and not running Refresh manually or b) editing a file with an external editor like Notepad.

Try refreshing the root of your project and then cleaning the project and see if that helps.

Don't use Ant, never have.
Am only using the MyEclipse JSF Editor.

This only happens when working with the JSF designer and trying to re-deploy a project.

It's as though one of the JSF editors (like the faces-config.xml editor) is not integrated with the other editors.

I'm only working on the JSF demo. It's the only project open and I'm using all the MyEclipse tools.

(The reason for my posting.)

When that problem occurs, can you refresh the project as I mentioned above and see if it goes away? If not, please post the result from your MyEclipse > About > Configuration Summary dialog.
