I have a problem about tomcat and eclipse I want to design project ZK. I installed apache tomcat and it works.I can see it working on this url http://localhost:8080/ But I can't use tomcat in eclipse project. It is not shown in runtime servers or installed server. I tried many things in internet but I couldn't do it. What can be missed?

You probably need to add the Server Runtime Environment. In Window->Preferences->Server->Runtime Environments, click on the Add button, select the version of tomcat that you've installed, and point it to the directory in which you've installed tomcat.

Once you have a Runtime Environment, in your project, right click and select Project Properties->Server. Then select the environment you've just created.

If none of these options are available to you, install Webtool Platform (WTP). And then create the server runtime environment and assign the enviroment to your project, as above.

Make sure that when creating a new Dynamic Web Project, in EAR Membership -> EAR Project Name checkbox is unchecked enter image description here

Here is a helpful guide, http://www.mulesoft.com/tomcat-eclipse.

Depending on the version of Eclipse you are running you may have to install the Web Tools Platform, WTP, from the eclipse download tool.

Salaam,

I find this: sysdeo :plugin very useful.

  • install: under plugins dir @ eclipse
  • config: enter your tomcat install root (different instance for each workspace)
  • start/stop/reload buttons
  • log redirect to console

You can also use ant scripts to control tomcat server
