I used to use eclipse for my java project till now. In that I used to give a server.xml corresponding to a tomcat server. But in IntelliJ I can't find where should I give that server.xml. Can anyone help me out?
You can find this file in Directories Used by IntelliJ IDEA to Store Settings, Caches, Plugins and Logs.
For my computer, I am using window 10, I found that in following path:
C:\Users\<USER ACCOUNT NAME>\.IntelliJIdea15\system\tomcat\<project name>\conf\server.xml
In intellij, you should click on Run > Edit configurations... > Add new configuration (clicking on "+" icon) > Tomcat (select local or remote) and complete the configuration using your settings.
I hope this can help you.
Thanks
Goto File, then New Project.
Create from Scratch.
Click Next, give the Project a Name, and keep Clicking Next until the Desired Technologies window comes.
Click Web-Application, then Finish.
Click File, then Settings.
Click on Application Servers and Hit the + to add a new Tomcat Server.
Set the Home Directory of the application server you have just installed(ex: c:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation// and then Click ok.
Click on the run button, and then then Edit Defaults.
Click on the + in the top left hand corner and add a Tomcat Server, then Local configuration.
Select the Tomcat in the pulldown menu next to Application Server.
I hope this will help you.
I want to debug a webapp through Eclipse. The webapp will be running on a Tomcat 7 instance that I have configured within Eclipse, and thus everything, including Tomcat's launch will be done from within Eclipse.
Now, my question is what is the best way to debug the webapp in such a situation. Is local debugging possible, or the only solution is remote debugging.
I know how to do remote debugging, but given that everything is done from within Eclipse, I wanted to see if there is a better way of doing it.
Click on Run -> Debug Configurations.... On the left side you should have your tomcat server listed. (if not, you first have to define it in the preferences).
Configure your VM settings and whatever you need, then just click Debugin the lower right corner.
Your server should now start in debug mode, and stop on breakpoints.
From now on the server will be included in popdown menu of the Debug-Button in your toolbar.
Alternatively you can add the Servers View (Window -> Show View -> Servers), select your server and start it in debug by right-clicking
I have migrated my application development to a new PC and now when I run the application (Run > Run as > Web application). I get the "HTML Page Selection" popup in which I select my application. However, now I also get a "Choose a launch configuration:" popup which lists "AwardTracker" and "AwardTrackwer.html". They both do the same thing. How do I remove one of these please (this is more annoying than anything else)?

How to remove a configuration in Eclipse GWT
Simply select any Web Application and click on RED X icon displayed on top right of it to remove an existing configuration.
Once a Web Application is configured then there is no need to create it again. Just launch it from existing one to avoid it choosing a launch configuration again.
Once configured then don't run it again by RIGHT click on the project to run as Web Application. Simply select from the existing one form the tool bar as shown in below screenshots.
Click Run > Run Configurations > your configuration (typically, a name of your HTML or JSP file) > Arguments.
Make sure you only have the path that you want to launch.

Im using Eclipse Galileo, and have configured it for Apache Tomcat . I have added Apache Tomcat 6.0 to Windows->Server->Runtime Environments, with the following settings:
Tomcat Installation Directory - C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.24\apache-tomcat-6.0.24
JRE - Workbench Default JRE (This points to C:\Program Files\Java\jre6)
Now, I create a Dynamic Web Project, and add a JSP file to it. But, when I run the project I get the following error:
The Tomcat server configuration at \Servers\Tomcat v6.0 Server at localhost-config is missing. Check the server for errors.
Any way to fix this?
Probably, you have some problems with your server's configuration.
Follow these steps to remove and create a new one, it might help you.
In Eclipse
1. Window -> Show view -> Servers (If you cannot see it, you might need to choose Others -> Server)
2. From Server view -> Delete the server which has problems.
3. Right click -> New -> Server : to create a new one
In my case, after new server was created, I get rid of this "localhost-config is missing"
I faced the same problem once. THe reason for this is that even though the server is available, the config files are missing. You can see the server at Windows -> Show view -> Servers. Their configuration files can be seen at Project Explorer -> Servers. For some reason this second mentioned config files were missing.
I simply deleted the existing server and created a new one with this the config files were also created and the problem was solved!
Similar solution is given at here by Emertana EM
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/juli/logging/LogFactory
In Eclipse Neo
1. Window -> Show view -> Servers
2. Right click on server -> choose Properties
3. From General Tab -> Switch Location
As Yoni already mentioned, you probably deleted the project named "Servers" from your Project Explorer. If config files for the server still present on a file system, the quickest way to restore it will be Right Click in Project Explorer->Import->General->Existing Projects into Workspace, then select the root dir where Servers dir located, set checkbox near "Servers" and finally click Finish. If everything works as expected, you should see the 'Servers' project added to the Project Explorer view and your old config files will be there. Finally, save the tomcat configuration which you had open. You can startup your Tomcat server without errors now.
From project explorer ,just make sure that Servers is not closed
You need to define the server instance in the Servers view.
In the box at the right bottom, press the Servers tab and add the server there. You by the way don't necessarily need to add it through global IDE preferences. It will be automagically added when you define it in Servers view. The preference you've modified just defines default locations, not the whole server instance itself. If you for instance upgrade/move the server, you can change the physical location there.
Once defining the server in the Servers view, you need to add the newly created server instance to the project through its Server and Targeted runtime preference.
If you're not too attached to your current workspace you can create a new workspace, follow BalusC's steps for server creation, and recreate your project in the new workspace.
I got the same error after installing Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers(Juno) but using the workspace of a much older Eclipse installation. When I created a new workspace I was able to get my Tomcat server running without this error.
Did you, by any chance, deleted stuff from your workspace, or moved it around?
When you create a server for the first time, either globally or through the project's "run on server" settings, Eclipse creates a project in the Servers view, as BalusC pointed out. Eclipse stores this server inside your workspace, in a project called Servers. The project needs to be open for tomcat to run.
(If you want, you can store the server settings elsewher. You can right click and open the server instance from the Servers view and configure various parameters and locations)
This happens when Eclipse shuts down incorrectly - delete the server and then re-create it again.
Remove the server from IDE and install again to it.
In my case, the server list was empty for Apache in "Run Configurations" when I opened
Run > Run Configurations
I fixed this by creating a server in the Servers Panel as in other answers:
Window -> Show view -> Servers
Right click -> New -> Server : to create a new one
this worked for me
In the Server's tab in Eclipse, Stop the Tomcat server
Right-click the server and select "Clean..."
Right-click the server again and select "Clean Tomcat Work Directory..."
In the Eclipse, select the top-level menu option, Project > Clean ...
Be sure your project is selected and click Ok
Restart Eclipse
4th Step is most important.
Go to Servers remove the existing server by clicking delete.
Click the blue link to launch the server.
Set a new runtime environment.
Close the Eclipse and launch it again.
Boom it works!
