Cannot find Explore option in Servers tab (Eclipse Juno SR2) - eclipse

I downloaded the new Eclipse Juno SR2. After creating a server in the Servers tab, I cannot find the 'Explore' option (when you click on the server name and use your right mouse button). It is a JBoss 7.1 server by the way. Does any one know if the 'Explore' option has been removed or is there a different way of getting to it?

I cannot find Explore but I can use 'Show In' > 'File Browser' to achieve the same thing.

How can I add more server type options to Eclipse?

I'm following a Spring tutorial that uses Apache Tomcat and Eclipse, but when I try to add a server I don't see Tomcat in the options. (See pic below)
What can I do to add it there?
I use Eclipse Neon release (4.6.1)
Go to Help > Install New Software
Search for your required server or if you have link to it, add it in 'Work with' tab

Installing GlassFish server in luna

I am trying to install GlassFish server manually and have installed the GlassFish tool from Eclipse market place.
However, when I go to
Windows > Show Views > Other > Server > Servers
New->Server still no option for GlassFish is show.
I am still unable to see the GlassFish server option
How do I resolve this?
How did you install the Glassfish Tools? The correct way is:
install Glassfish (outside of eclipse)
click Window->Preferences
click Runtime Environment
click Add
(probably you won't find Glassfish otherwise go directly to 13.) click link Download additional server adapters
choose Glassfish Tools
Next
Finnish
Reboot Eclipse!
click Window->Preferences
click Runtime Environment
click Add
choose GlassFish
choose GlassFish installation directory (possible if you finnished 1.)
Finnish
Now you should be able use the New Server Wizard within the Server View.

"Visual Page Editor has experimental support for Windows 64-bit"

I am using Eclipse Luna and JBoss AS 7. When I create a JSP page in Eclipse, then I get the below error:
I changed my server to Tomcat 7, still I am getting the same error.
How is this caused and how can I solve it?
That visual page editor is part of JBoss Tools plugin which you installed in order to be able to integrate and use JBoss AS server in Eclipse.
You don't need it. It's not only experimental, but generally visual page editors just doesn't work when you want to end up with quality code. Just click the red cross at the right bottom corner and then click the Source tab and finally close the Palette tab. This is fortunately an one-time thing. It will stay away when you create new JSP pages.
It's just the worst part of otherwise very great JBoss Tools plugin.
If you want to use a visual editor, I would recommend the XULRunner JBoss tool.

Adding Tomcat into Eclipse

I am trying to add a tomcat server into runtime environments. I successfully installed tomcat. I already have Java EE eclipse, BUT after I click search under Window->Preferences->Server->Runtime environments and select apache tomcat and then click OK a window with the following text popups: No new server runtime environments were found. What am I doing wrong? I thought after switching to Java EE and installing tomcat I will be able to add the RE... Many thanks in advance!
After trying to add the RE: no tomcat servers list!!!
after trying to search (C:/Program Files/Apache...)
and finally the popup after choosing "apache software foundation" and hitting ok
You need to specify the server runtime in that window. From the browse button, select the base path of the directory where you have installed tomcat and hit next. Hopefully that should do it. There should also be an option to download and install, if you have internet connectivity.
If you dont see any server types in the 'add new Server' dialog, then you are probably missing the server adapters. In which case click on the 'Download additional server adapters' link. This will allow you to pick and download 'tomcat server adapter'. Once that is done.
Some screenshots etc would also help in understanding and helping you resolve your issue.
Hope this helps.
Run time environment click on add button select Apache tomcat-> Click on next button -> Browse the Tomcat 7.0 path -> Finish.
Because you are not having JST server adapters...you are not able to see installed apache in eclipse ....just install this through 'install new software' in help menu ....
You are most likely are missing the Eclipse Tomcat Server Feature. You can either try reinstalling all of the WTP plugins or maybe install Spring STS which I'm sure has the plugin installed.

Disable Auto load of JBoss News Blogs info in Eclipse

I am using Eclipse JUNO SR1 and installed JBoss Tools from official site.
Everything is fine except some annoying features which's causing my eclipse to perform slow
When I open Eclipse, it's showing up JBoss start up page where it's loading JBoss blog information and News and some JBoss tutorials.
They keep on progressing may be due to some firewall settings or whatever reason.
I want to disable all such useless loadings at startup of Eclipse or at any point of time.
I am aware of Eclipse startup settings. However lot of Jboss features are turned on there. What should i do to disable all such useless external informations/fetching of data.
Ok, I found it.
Go to Menu > Window > Preferences > JBoss Tools > JBoss Central and uncheck Show JBoss Central On Startup
There is an easier way to do it. On the JBoss tab, there is a wheel icon on the top right corner. Clicking on it, it shows a checkbox to disable showing this tab on start up.
Cheers.
