I'm trying to install Tomcat in Eclipse but I can't get a server tab to show up.
When I go to Window -> Show View -> Other and type in "server", I don't get any results.
When I go to File -> New -> Other and type 'server' I also get nothing.
Does anyone know what happened to my servers and where I can find them? (I've never used Eclipse with servers before).
Try to install JST Server Adapters and JST Server Adapters Extentions. I am running Eclipse 4.4.2 Luna and it worked.
Here are the steps I followed:
Help -> Install New Software
Choose "Luna - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna" site
Expand "Web, XML, and Java EE Development"
Check JST Server Adapters and JST Server Adapters Extentions
For future poeple who have the same problem: Try to add server tab from eclipse menu, if it doesnt work, then go do #Tomasz Bartnik solution above, and retry the following again:
Go to WIndow > Show view > Other
search for servers, select it and press OK
It will then be added to your tabs
The reason you might not be getting any results is because you might not be having the J2EE environment setup in your Eclipse IDE. Follow these steps to solve the problem.
Goto Help -> Install new Software
Select {Oxygen - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen} (or Similar option/version) in the "Work with" tab.
Search for Web,XML,Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development
Check the boxes corresponding to,
Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
JST Server Adapters
JST Server Adapters Extensions
Click next and accept the license agreement.
Hope this helps.
I ended up installing a new copy of Eclipse - JAVA EE, and it all works now.
The Web Tools Platform provides the Java EE development tools, and is included in the IDE for Java EE Developers. Among other things, it provides the Servers view and makes it easy to launch a Tomcat server from there. You can either download the IDE for Java EE Developers, or go to the Help menu and Install New Software, looking for the Java EE features.
Steps to follow:
1.Goto Help -> Install new Software
2.Give address http://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen and name as your choice.
3.Search for Java EE and choose 1.Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
4.Search for JST and choose 2.JST Server Adapters 3.JST Server Adapters Extensions
5.Click next and accept the license agreement.
Find the server option in the window-->preferences and add server as you need
In {workspace-directory}/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings delete the following two files:
org.eclipse.wst.server.core.prefs
org.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.core.prefs
Restart Eclipse
The reason you might not be getting any results is because you might not be having the J2EE environment setup in your Eclipse IDE. Follow these steps to solve the problem.
Goto Help -> Install new Software
Select relevant dropdown entry {Oxygen - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/<?>} (or Similar
option/version) in the "Work with" tab.
Search for Web,XML,Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development
Check the boxes corresponding to,Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
JST Server Adapters
JST Server Adapters Extensions
Click next and accept the license agreement.
Download the tomcat latest zip from
https://tomcat.apache.org/download-90.cgi
Rename the folder with simple name like 'tomcat'.
Save the folder and copy the path.
Goto Help -> Install new Software
Select {Oxygen - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen} in the "Work with" tab.
Select the last option Web,XML,Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development
Check the boxes corresponding to 1.Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools 2.JST Server Adapters 3.JST Server Adapters Extensions Click next and accept the license agreement.
You can install Tomcat server form Eclipse market place.
Help -> Eclipse Market Place search for 'Tomcat' -> Install Eclipse Tomcat plugin.
After installation restart eclipse.
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers 'Servers' doesn't exist.
Therefore download correct Eclipse IDE. It is Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java Developers(Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers). This way is easy.
You have probably installed Eclipse for Java Developers instead of Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java Developers, server tab and some other are not available.
You don't have to uninstall. Just rerun eclipse-inst-win64.exe and choose Java EE IDE

I've downloaded apache-tomcat-8.0.8 archive, then I've unzipped it and tried to add it in Preferences -> Server -> Runtime Environments by clicking Search and selecting path to the uzipped archive. What I'm getting is Server Error
No new server runtime environments were found.
Any ideas why it might be happening? I have no Apache Tomcat options in New Server Runtime Environment window, which I get by clicking Add in the previous one. There are such options in every tutorial I read.
I think there currently is no adapter for Tomcat 8 in Eclipse.
Updated
Don't use the search button. Click add and choose an adapter first. Open Apache and choose Tomcat 7. Click next and point the installation directory at your Tomcat folder.
It seem that you have Eclipse without Java EE components.
so you see something like
instead of
Check Apache Tomcat Not Showing in Eclipse Server Runtime Environments (need to install JST Server Adapters )
Once you have plugins installed follow dialog flow e.g. like
http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.jst.server.ui.doc.user%2Ftopics%2Ftomcat.html
Seems like no java EE component.
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers 'Servers' doesn't exist.
Therefore download correct Eclipse IDE. It is Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java Developers(Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers).
Then,
Open Eclipse IDE > Click on the Servers tab located at the bottom > right click > New > click on Server.
Select Apache and then select the appropriate version of tomcat server.click Next.
Select tomcat Installation Directory and JRE. Click next.Click Finish.
It is possible to install a variety or servers from
within Eclipse by navigating to Window -> Preferences
-> Server -> Runtime Environment -> Add...
However besides Tomcat, WebSphere, JBoss, JOnAs,
and OC4J I do not see an entry for GlassFish.
Why is this?
Thanks.
Most server adapters are not maintained or distributed by eclipse.org and the included ones are being phased out. Use "Download additional server adapters link" on the same screen to find and install the adapter that you need.
I was able to include Glassfish in my Eclipse Juno IDE by
installing it from Help -> Eclispe Marketplace... -> entering glassfish
in the search box and selecting "GlassFish Tools for Juno".
Still not sure what the difference is between the Eclipse MarketPlace...
link and the Install New Software... link other than the first leads
to a centralized repository and the second leads to a specific URL.
Thanks.
I'm trying to add Apache server to Eclipse(Juno). I have installed Apache server 7.0, but when I try to add this to the Eclipse environment I don't see the options server in windows>preferences. There must be an option called server in preferences to add Tomcat server.
Please, help me on how to get that option?
Do I need to install any plugin? If yes, please, provide me the link or the name.
In Eclipse Kepler,
go to Help, select ‘Install New Software’
Choose “Kepler- http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler” site or add it in if it’s missing.
Expand “Web, XML, and Java EE Development” section Check JST Server Adapters and JST Server Adapters Extensions and install it
After Eclipse restart, go to Window / Preferences / Server / Runtime Environments
You did not install the correct Eclipse distribution. Try install the one labeled "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers".
I had the same issue. I was using eclipse platform and server was missing in my show view. To fix this go:
help>install new software
in work with : select : "Indigo Update Site - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/" , once selected, all available software will be displayed in the section under type filter text
Expand “Web, XML, and Java EE Development” and select "JST Server adapters extensions"
then click next and finish.
The server should be displayed in show view
You can also install the required packages with Help -> Install new software...
See http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/compare.php for the packages you need to install to have eclipse IDE for java EE developers
Follow the below steps:

3.Search for Java EE and choose 1.Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
4.Search for JST and choose 2.JST Server Adapters 3.JST Server Adapters
5.Click next and accept the license agreement.
Find the server option in the window-->preferences and add server as you need
If above answers did not work for you then just click this link https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/2020-06/r/eclipse-ide-enterprise-java-developers download according to your OS. And after downloading and extracting the ZIP open the extract folder and click on Eclipse application icon.
Then just enter your workspace and get started. Now you will be able to see the servers option in Window->Show View, like this:
Goto Help
Eclipse Marketplace
In the find option, search for JST server adapter and then install
I'm trying to configure Tomcat with Eclipse Indigo, but the "Servers" view is missing. That being said, I had to follow this tutorial on how to configure Tomcat with Eclipse Indigo using plugins. The plugins work, but I would like to find out why the "Servers" view is missing in the first place.
Eclipse specs:
Version: 3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9gF7UHOxFtniV7mI3T556iZN9AU8bEZ1lHMcVK

Server built: Sep 27 2011 09:40:50
Server number: 7.0.22.0

OS Version: 5.1
Architecture: x86
JVM Version: 1.6.0_20-b02
OS specs:
Microsoft Windows XP

And if it matters, this is the tutorial I was originally following.
Is it missing just from the menu maybe?
If you goto "Window > Show View > Other..." and then type Servers in the filter, does it show up?
Also make sure you downloaded the "Eclipse For Java EE Developers" package as I do not believe the "Eclipse for Java Developers" contains the Servers view.
Eclipse for Java EE Developers:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/indigosr1
I am using Luna. I have following following steps.
Help -> Install New Software

ii) Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools 3.6.3.v201502041526
iii) Eclipse Web Developer Tools 3.6.3.v201501312139
Restart Eclipse.
Not sure if it works for indigo or not. If not, you need to search for the URL for indigo in http://download.eclipse.org/releases.
It's late but someone may get help with this...
There is a option to reset perspective and you can get all view as before.
First select the perspective you want to reset then use the window menu to find the "Reset Perspective" option.

I have download the Eclipse IDE for Java developer, HELIOS. I click 'File -> New -> Project...', but I only have "General, CVS, Java project, Examples". I would like to be able to create "dynamic web project", why do I not have this option?
I searched from internet, and the reason is probably I don't have Eclipse Web Development Tools, but how can I get it?
-----------EDIT-----------
I know by install Eclipse IDE for Java EE developer can solve the problem. But, I am working under Linux Ubuntu, how to get Eclipse Java EE version for Ubuntu Linux machine?
Not all of them are required (I think), but after installing the components listed below I got the "Dynamic Web Project" template added to my Eclipse (Indigo). The list is:
Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
Eclipse Web Developer Tools
Eclipse XML Editors and Tools
You can install those packages by clicking on "Help" > "Install New Software", selecting the repository that corresponds to your Eclipse build (i.e http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo for Indigo). The packages are grouped under "Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development".
I think you need the Web Tools Platform package for this. Not very sure though. You can add it to your current eclipse through Help > install new software.
Then add the software repository site location for WTP for your version of eclipse. This is how you can install plugins in eclipse.
"http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler"(If you have Eclipse Kepler)
Based on your eclipse choose above link and copy in
help>Install new software
paste in "work with" click add
give any name you want - plugin
In the list select>"Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development">Eclipse Java EE
Developer Tools. select and install it.
After restart you will have your Dyanmic web project option.
Thank You.
Like me if it worked please
You only need to install
Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
and you will be able to see "Dynamic web project" wizard.
Download Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers, everything you need should be included inside. This is the most painless way of obtaining Web Development Tools.
If you want to leave your existing Eclipse IDE, you can go to 'Help -> Install New Software' and find WDT to install them, although I haven't personally tried to go this route, so I can't guarantee everything will work out of the box.
Edit: not sure if it's included in Ubuntu's repository. One other way to do it is to download Linux 32-bit (or 64-bit, depending on your machine) version of Eclipse EE, but you'll have to check if it's the source you have to compile yourself, or an already compiled binary.
Fwiw, I downloaded the standard Java EE version of the Mars version of Eclipse, and ran into the same deal -- didn't see a Web option if I tried File >>> New >>> Project wizard.
The good news: Probably no extra installation needed.
It looks like what I wanted was to select the Other option rather than the Project item (strangely this is what comes up when you hit Ctrl-N, but that also lets us know we're probably on the right track):
After you select "Other", you'll see the "Select a wizard" screen, where you can select "Dynamic Web Project" and profit.
HELP
Install New Software
In Work With input box paste this url: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/{version}/
Replace version with your eclipse's version (eg: LUNA)
Hit enter
Underneath box will have different options, select package of your need.
Maybe Eclipse WTP plugin has been accidently removed. Have you tried re-installing WTP using this location ? If I were you I would have reinstall Eclipse from strach or even better try Spring ToolSuite which integrates with Google Plugin for Eclipse seamlessly (usign Extenstions tab on STS Dashboard)
Just download any eclipse with "EE" letters
I had a similar problem, you may find that going to the top right corner of your page in Eclipse and click "Java EE" instead of "Java" will solve your problem. I had EE installed correctly like you, and this solved the issue for me. Hope I helped :)

The easiest way to handle this is to install the full package installer with all weblogic add ons from the oracle site. This will install eclipse with all the features/plug ins you need.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/eclipse/downloads/oepe-network-installer-2371168.html
This helped me find the "Dynamic web project" in Eclipse 2020-12 version. Restart the eclipse and go to file->new->other->web and you will see
project will be available.
This option might be missing because more than one and other than Tomcat runtime is selected. At the marked spot I was shown that I have selected Java JDK runtime. After unselecting it Dynamic Web Module reappeared.
