I can't see any files under my Tomcat folder (C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation). This is the only Tomcat folder I have. Strangely, it is working fine, I can see that localhost:8080 shows that Tomcat was properly installed and it is running.

Got apache tomcat error that access denied on this file localhost_access_log.2014-08-30.txt? -> this is a solution. After I've given the rights i can see all necessary files inside a folder.

I ran into the same problem before. You have to first right click on the folder (C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation) --> Properties --> unselect Read Only in Attributes --> Click on Apply (also click Continue if there is a prompt). Then you'll see all the files under the Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 9.0 folder.
Now you can restart Eclipse and configure the Tomcat server again.
