I would like to request the ability to set multiple app servers of a particular kind.

like 3 configs of tomcat 5.0
or 4 configs of Bea WebLogic 8.1

this would be very handy to not have to switch it everytime i need to target it elsewhere.

I would like to request the ability to set multiple app servers of a particular kind.

This is an open enhancement that we will address in MyEclipse 5.0 near the end of this year.

thanks a lot

Any updates to this…I’ve found a couple of configuration issues revolving around the different ways my company uses Weblogic, 1 instance in a plain vanilla weblogic installation, the other has a closed source portal that adds about a bajillion libraries to the weblogic class path, I do 70% of my developing in the portal world, but now the 30% has bitten me, everythings fine on my doctored PC, but deploy against the stock Weblogic instance and I’m getting many, MANY NoClassDefFound exceptions. It’d sure be nice if I could have multiple weblogic profiles!!!
Would it help if I said pretty please?? 😉

mezmo,
If you go to your WebLogic connector, go to the “Launch” tab, as of 5.0, you can click “Create Custom Launch Configuration” and then in your Run/Debug menus you will see a custom launch configuratio for that app server that you can customize to your hearts content.

Riyad,

Can you email regarding this? As you know I also have been looking for this feature for several years now, and I still cannot get it to work at all using ME 5.1.1 GA.

Thanks,
John

John,
I don’t understand your request. In my post above I explain how to use it… is that not working? What’s going on?

[Riyad Kalla]

John, I went back and re-read your post here:
https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/project-specific-application-server-configurations/&highlight=#38819

And from what I understand, you have multiple weblogic domains that you want to deploy to and manage… the best way to do this is two-fold:

1) Go to the weblogic configuration screen, set it up for the first domain and hit OK. Go back into the config and go to Launch then click Create Custom Launch Configuration. Now go to your Run or Debug… menus to get a list of all the run configurations. Find the one you just created and duplicate it 2 other times (for a total of 3). Adjust the other 2 new configurations to launch the different domains you want and adjust the names of the launch configs if you like.

2) Now go create your deployments for each project using the “Custom Location” deployment location… specify the deployment directory and then you should be all set. You likely won’t be able to use the server view this way because it adheres to our original model of having 1 server config but you will be able to deploy run/debug/start/stop from within MYEclipse doing this.

Riyad,

Is this still the only way to have multiple configurations of the same app server? I’ve got a project which I want to deploy to Tomcat 5.5 / Java 5 and another which I want to deploy to Tomcat 5.5 (with compatibility package) / Java 1.4.

Using the ‘servers’ view would be ideal. I’m using MyEclipse build 20070521-5.5.1-GA.

Thanks in advance,

Matt

Matt,
yes at the moment this is the only way.
