I’ve upgrade to Eclipse 3.2.1 and MyEclipse 5.1GA and the server deployment that I’ve been using with MyEclipse 5.0GA to WebSphere 5.1 is no longer working. I have a EAR file that contains only a WAR file that I’m trying to get deployed. The EAR file’s directories are copied over correctly but nothing if the WAR is moved over.

I do get the following in the log though:

Any ideas as to what may be going on and if there is a workaround?

Hmm. Can you try removing the deployment, then manually right clicking at the root of each project and Refreshing it. Then cleaning/rebuilding all the projects.

Are there any build errors?

If not, try restarting using the -clean command line argument and then try and recreate the deployment.

If that’s still not working, try double checking that your Web Project still has it’s source and output dirs set correctly. Then check the project properties of the Web project, under MyEclipse > Web, and make sure that the context root is still set and both boxes have values.
