When attempting to run a jsf app using MyEclipse Tomcat server, I cannot seem to resolve classpath issues in making dependent jars/classes available to the ME Tomcat server.

For instance, the mysql connector jar file is not visible to tomcat when placed in any tomcat lib dir — it is only found by using the Window -> Preferences -> MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench -> Servers -> Integrated Sandbox -> MyEclipse Tomcat 6 -> Paths
and adding the specific jar file in ‘Append to classpath’.

In fact, I have created a lib directory under <me workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/com.genuitec.eclipse.easie.tomcat.myeclipse/tomcat
and placing jars in that dir, then adding the dir under the above preferences configuration to no avail. (yet I could add a jar IN the lib dir that would in turn be found).

Guess I am confused as to where the common/lib tomcat jars should be placed.
I would like to be able to debug/step through this project in the ide. Seemed like I was able to do this in previous versions…

I had thought that the Project Deployments process would work for the MyEclipse Tomcat Server as it does for external deployments (which I have no problem with)…

ME 6.5.1
linux FC9

howardh,
The MyEclipse Tomcat does not have all the Tomcat 6 functionality. It has the bare minimum functionality to run and test applications. If you want to append libraries and do other things, I would suggest you setup a separate Tomcat 6 server and you should not face any of these problems again.

Nipun,

Good to know — though I was missing something.

Is it possible to set breakpoints and step through code with an externally launched server?

Yes it is possible.
