Apache Tomcat Not Showing in Eclipse Server Runtime Environments [duplicate]
In my case I needed to install "JST Server Adapters". I am running Eclipse 3.6 Helios RCP Edition.
Here are the steps I followed:
- Help -> Install New Software
- Choose "Helios - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios" site or kepler - http://download.ecliplse.org/releases/kepler
- Expand "Web, XML, and Java EE Development"
- Check JST Server Adapters (version 3.2.2)
After that I could define new Server Runtime Environments.
EDIT: With Eclipse 3.7 Indigo Classic, Eclipse Kepler and Luna, the steps are the same (with appropriate update site) but you need both JST Server Adapters and JST Server Adapters Extentions to get the Server Runtime Environment options.
You need to go to Help>Eclipse Marketplace . Then type server in the search box it will display Eclipse JST Server Adapters (Apache Tomcat,...) .Select that one and install it .Then go back to Window>Preferences>Server>Runtime Environnement, click add choose Apache tomcat version then add the installation directory .
I had the same problem and I solved it with the following steps
- Help > Install New Software...
- Select "Eclipse Web Tools Platform Repository (http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates)" from the "Work with" drop-down.
- Select "Web Tools Platform (WTP)" and "Project Provided Components".
Complete all the installation steps and restart Eclipse. You'll see a bunch of servers when you try to add a server runtime environment.
