[news.eclipse.tools] Re: error starting Tomcat

["Shane J. Eaker" <eakersj@xxxxxxxxx>]

I recently went through this myself.  I assume you downloaded
tomcatPluginV21.zip from http://www.sysdeo.com/eclipse/tomcatPlugin.html.
The DevLoader is found within the zipfile above.  Make sure you specifically
extract the contents of the DevLoader.zip to your
%CATALINA_HOME%/server/classes.

I'll assume you the other config settings inside Eclipse set correctly.

Did this fix it?

Please not that this news group is deprecated.  Try eclipse.tools.jdt next
time.

Later,

Shane
