I am getting the following error at the console when trying to start my Apache Tomcat/4.1.31, w/o any applications in webapps from within myeclipse (my myeclipse version is 4.1.1, eclipse version 3.1.1)

Outside myeclipse it starts no problem.

What version of JDK did you setup to run Tomcat? I find it extremely supicious that this most basic error doesn’t occur when you start it outside of MyEclipse…

[aturetsky]

1.4.2_06

One fix that I found was to take all the jars out myeclipse’s appended classpath in preferences and to actually put them into the appropriate tomcat folders such as endorsed and shared.

[Riyad Kalla]

Ahh yes that could effect the startup.

[aturetsky]

well, yeah – but it shouldn’t though – putting the jars into the classpath through myeclipse should work, no?

[Riyad Kalla]

Yes, but if some of those libraries do something strange on startup, that could effect startup. If those libraries weren’t already in the common/lib area, the starting up Tomcat inside of MyEclipse and outside are not the same thing, you had Tomcat configured differently from within MyEclipse which looks to have borked the startup so it wasn’t an orange-to-oranges comparison.

Maybe I missed something?

[aturetsky]

that’s a good point
thanks for your prompt reply
