Hello,

I am running MyEclipse Blue 8.0, deploying to WAS 6.1. I will typically deploy an app to my server connector, work with it, and then exit the IDE. When I restart the IDE, the server connector no longer shows my EAR as deployed (it doesn’t show up at all in fact). So when I go to “Add Deployment” and select my EAR, it says “this resource already exists” and gives me the option to either back up the existing resource, delete it and redeploy, or only overwrite changed files. I choose the delete and redeploy option, and then once it is done it is always in Redeploy status, so i have to redeploy again, at which point it is usable and ready to go.

Of course, all this takes a fair amount of time, so I lose 15-20 minutes every morning when I start work because I have to redeploy my app twice before I can start debugging. Is there a way to prevent MyEclipse Blue from losing track of my app deployment so that it’s still there when I restart my IDE in the morning?

Aaron,
I could not replicate this at my end. The deployed projects were intact under the servers view even after I restarted the IDE. Can you give some more information?
1. Can you copy paste your installation details from MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details?
2. What is the mode of deployment that you are using? Exploded or Packaged?
3. Are there any relevant errors in the log file located at workspace dir > metadata > .log?
4. Can you list out the steps in detail to replicate the above issue?

I am using an Exploded deployment.

These errors are in the .log from the time when I opened my Servers view:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 2 1 2010-03-03 08:57:32.196

The steps to reproduce are:

Deploy EAR to a WebSphere 6.1 connector.
Exit IDE.
Restart IDE.
Go to Servers view. The deployment no longer shows up.
Right click, select Add Deployment.
Select the EAR previously installed. The message appears that the asset already exists, and asks to delete, overwrite, or backup.

Another thing I noticed. If I look in my workspace .metadata in .metadata\.plugins\com.genuitec.eclipse.blue.websphere, the redeployment.xml has no deployments in it, but if I look in .metadata\.plugins\com.genuitec.eclipse.blue.websphere61, the application.xml lists my EAR. The redeployment.xml has a last modified time of the time I started the IDE this morning.

Note, I’ve since redeployed and redeployment.xml still has nothing in it. Not sure if that’s to be expected, just FYI.

[Aaron Scifres]

Is there any news on this issue? It continues to be bothersome for me.

[Aaron Scifres]

By the way, this problem doesn’t just affect me, it affects everyone on my team. A speedy resolution would be appreciated.
