Im currently trying to install the Apache Derby plugin (http://db.apache.org/derby/releases/release-10.8.2.2.cgi) to my current eclipse install. I have downloaded both the core and ui zip files and tried unzipping into both the dropins and plugins folder (checked the file hierarchy and everything appears to be in the right place "/eclipse/plugins/"). On opening eclipse I dont see any prompt to install new software (from teh dropins folder). When i try to install via Prefereces > Connectivity > Database Drivers no derby plugins are available from the list.
Anyone have an idea as to how to make this install work?
EDIT: I reinstalled eclipse as the 32 bit version as opposed to 64, works like a charm.
Have you point Eclipse to the Derby JDBC driver (should be called derbyclient.jar)? You can define that through Preferences > Data Management > Connectivity > Driver Definitions. Have a look at this eclipse article
I just went through the same issue. I guess what happens is that you can add the Derby nature to a project, but you won't be able to see it in DB properties.
Create a new project, and then right-click the project root and then select "Add Derby Nature". You will then be able to work with the Derby DB by right-clicking on your project, and then selecting one of the options under "Apache Derby"

My colleague just set up a Dynamic Web Project in Eclipse and he also configured the server. He shared the entire project on a git repository and I cloned it. When I try to run the html file I click on 'run on server' but then I'm not able to choose an existing server already configured. Eclipse force me to create a new server with default configuration. I am attaching a screenshot of Eclipse

Help --> Install new software ---> install " eclipse repository - https://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen ".
Then install the package for -- Web,XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development.
Reboot your computer and eclipse. Then it will work. Good luck.
It works for me:
Properties -> Project Facets and do it like this
Right click on you project and go to properties. Go to Project Facets and on Dynamic Web Module click the little drop down menu and select 3.1. I initially had it at 4.0 and it was not supported in my version of Eclipse.
I want to update my Eclipse so that I can associate projects with Tomcat 7. Currently, when I go to Window > Preferences > Tomcat, I get the following.
I originally thought it was a Eclipse version issue and I'd have to update. But I have Indigo and a friend of mine has Helios (older) and he has the Tomcat 7 option.
Then I thought the Tomcat feature might have been a plugin. So I tried Help > Check for Updates, but there were no updates.
Does anyone know how to get Version 7.x to appear?
Finally figured it out.
Close Eclipse.
Go here and download the latest zip file to get the plugin. Inside will be a folder called com.sysdeo.eclipse.tomcat_v.v.v (v.v.v depends on which zip version you downloaded).
Look inside your eclipse/plugins folder and delete the old com.sysdeo.eclipse.tomcat_v.v.v file.
Copy the new com.sysdeo.eclipse.tomcat_v.v.v file (from the zip) into the eclipse/plugins folder.
Restart Eclipse.
And there you go :)
I am planning to using Apache Tomcat for my development purpose in Eclipse IDE. I have created a webservice application, for this I need to configure Installed runtime as Tomcat Server, to run the service.
When I try to install it, I find it was missing in the list of servers.
How can I resolve this?
Window > Show View > Servers. From there, Right click > New > Server and you should see a first group called Apache, with plenty of Tomcats to choose from.
It might depend on the version of Eclipse you are using. I know for sure that Eclipse for Java EE Developers contains these servers, Eclipse Classic or Eclipse for Java Developers might not include them.
I got this problem and found this solution, may be it can help you:
- 1st: Copy file servlet-api.jar in folder install tomcat:ex:C:\tomcat\common\lib\servlet-api.jar into folder install java ex: C:\Program Files\java\jdk1.5\jre\lib\ext.
-2nd: open: C:\tomcat\conf\context.xml
add Text:
< Context reloadable = “true”>
WEB-INF/web.xml
…….
3rd: Download file tomcatPlugin….
unzip into "plugin" folder of eclipse
Start eclipse, go to Window\preference\
In Preference Tab:
Chose Tomcat and config:
+Tomcat version: Your installed tomcat version
+Tomcat home: link to folder that you unzip tomcat (C:\Tomcat5.5)
Manager App username: admin
Manager App password: admin
Clik OK
Restart Eclipse
OK. GOOD LUCK ^^

The question basically says it all. I'm trying setup up JavaDB on my virtualbox running Ubuntu 9.10.
I have the package downloaded and installed through the package manager, which I believe is the right to go about it. I have also installed the Eclipse's Data Platform Tools. I've been following this tutorial here: http://www.vogella.de/articles/EclipseDataToolsPlatform/article.html.
I'm stuck at the driver definition step. When I select the driver template from the Name/Type tab and the jar file in the Jar List tab, the OK button is never enabled. At the top of the New Driver Definition dialog it says 'Unable to locate Jar/zip in the file system as specified by the driver definition: derby.jar.' I assume this is the problem. Any help or links to a better tutorial would be much appreciated.
I think my problem was that I had forgotten to initially install derby as an eclipse plugin. I should have thought of this earlier, but Apache actually has a good tutorial for installing derby, integrating it with eclipse and building a sample project.
The link is here: http://db.apache.org/derby/integrate/derby_plugin.html.
Download the latest Derby version from the Apache website http://db.apache.org/derby/. Choose the binary distribution. Unzip the file to the Eclipse installation directory. The zip file will unpack to create a new subdirectory under the plugins directory of the Eclipse installation.
Source: http://db.apache.org/derby/integrate/derby_plugin.html#Install
You can also add a folder "lib" to your project then copy the file derby.jar from your Derby download into this folder.

I downloaded eclipse 3.4.2 and tried installing tomcat plugin (version 3.2.1)for eclipse from sysdeo (http://www.eclipsetotale.com/tomcatPlugin.html)
I have followed installation instructions but when is start tomcat from eclipse toolbar i got the following error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tomcat/util/log/SystemLogHandler
at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors0(Native Method)
at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:2357)

at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.init(Bootstrap.java:205)
at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:390)
I did follow troubleshoot instructions but no success.
I tried to putting plugin in dropin directory too but still got the same error.
This was working fine in eclipse 3.2 and 3.3
Then I tried using standard inbuilt WTP to set up my tomcat server. I am not sure how it will pick my server.xml in conf directory of tomcat, it seems it is not picking as of now.
How do I associate my eclipse project with this setup. I am able to start the server but when i browse the tomcat start page, it does not show anything.
I would appreciate if someone can provide some ways to fix this.
Thanks in advance.

After trying out few things I was able to debug tomcat project in eclipse 3.4.2
To debug tomcat application/project using eclipse 3.4.2 use WTP plugins which are installed along with it.
Go to Window --> Show View --> Others --> Server
In this view create a new server, please select tomcat installation directory and version information.
Then double click on Tomcat VX.X Server at local host, it opens up configuration settings page
In the Server Locations Section select "Use Tomcat Installation (takes control of Tomcat Installation) and enter deploy path.
In the publishing section select Never Publish automatically and uncheck update context path checkbox.
Voila!! All set to debug tomcat project in eclipse 3.4.2
There is no need to download and copy any extra plugin.
Thanks Juri. Hope this helps.
I'm using Tomcat with Eclipse Java EE version with WTP and it works perfectly. I have Ant scripts which deploy my web app to the tomcat webapp folder. In order to debug, you have to open the Server view in Eclipse, add a new server and choose the correct Tomcat version. Once that's done, open the configuration of Tomcat within eclipse by double-clicking on the server entry in the Eclipse server view you just created. On the left-middle side of the confguration page you should see something like "let Eclipse control the native Tomcat installation", I don't remember the exact text now. You have to choose that. Then you can set a breakpoint in your source code and then start Tomcat in debug mode from within Eclipse's server view.
Hope that helped.
If you are using the Sysdeo plugin, then you don't want to also be using the standard Eclipse WTP servers. To use the Sysdeo plugin, you need to have already downloaded and extracted a standard zipped tomcat directory. Make sure to define CATALINA_HOME in your path. Then, assuming you've correctly installed the sysdeo plugin, go into Eclipse->Windows->Prefs->Tomcat (this is Sysdeo's Tomcat settings, and not the WTP settings). You need to tell the plugin where you've extracted your Tomcat directory, and set it to use Context files.
Now create a new Dynamic web project. Right click it, and go into its properties->Tomcat.
Check it as a 'Tomcat Project'. Give it a context name, and also tell it the directory which would be the base of your war (by default, Eclipse has named this WebContent, I believe). Apply it and close the Window. Right click again your project, and go to the Tomcat section. Add the 'Tomcat Libraries to Build Path' so you can use the Servlet/JSP classes. Finally, click on 'Update Context'. If you go into your Tomcat directory under Conf, you'll see that the plugin has created a context for you that points to your Eclipse workspace. No need for deploying the app to the Tomcat directory. Now, you should be able to click on the Sysdeo Tomcat 'start' button, and your app should be able to connect to your app at localhost:8080/context_name.
