    Hi,

    I have Eclipse 3, MyEclipse and Tomcat 5 installed on a Windows XP machine.
    When I try ti start tomcat with MyEclipse I get the following message
    java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.setAwait(boolean)

    Everything is installed as per documentation. Can anybody provide a solution.

    Thanks

    That’s probably a good start. Send it to support@genuitec.com and please include the full URL for this thread so we can cross reference it.

    Vito,

    Thank your for the log entries you provided via email:

    Once I try to start Tomcat 5 with MyEclipse I get the following error message:

    java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.stopServer()

    at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Class.java:978)

    at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.stopServer(Bootstrap.java:318)

    at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:394)

    I did a fresh reinstall of Eclipse, MyEclipe and Tomcat 5. There was no error log created once the fresh install was complete.

    I installed Tomcat 5.0.12beta and had no problem debugging JSP’s with MyEclipse. From your email, it appears that your problem has also gone away with a reinstallation so I’m marking this issue as closed. Please let us know if you need anything else.

    Vito,

    Via email you said you’re still having a problem starting Tomcat. Can you start Tomcat successfully from a command window, outside of MyEclipse? Is your application available?

    If so, what error are you now seeing when you start Tomcat with MyEclipse? What are you specifying as the Tomcat home and base directories?

    Hi Scott,

    I can start Tomcat via the Start Programs fashion, or through the Window XP Services.
    The application is available once I start Tomcat outside Eclipse.
    Tomcat home: C:\Program Files\Apache\Tomcat 5.0
    Tomcat base: C:\Program Files\Apache\Tomcat 5.0
    Tomcat Temp: C:\Program Files\Apache\Tomcat 5.0\temp

    When I installed Tomcat it asks for a JVM. I pointed the installation to: C:\j2sdk1.4.2\jre is that ok.

    Erro message I get is:java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.stopServer()

    at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Class.java:978)

    at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.stopServer(Bootstrap.java:318)

    at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:394)

    Thanks

    Vito,

    When I installed Tomcat it asks for a JVM. I pointed the installation to: C:\j2sdk1.4.2\jre is that ok.

    That’s OK, but it has nothing to do with the JDK used to start Tomcat within MyEclipse. Please navigate to Window > Preferences > MyEclipse > Application Servers > Tomcat 5 > JDK. Make sure that the top level directory (ie. NOT /jre) for a full JDK has been specified. If not, please specify one. Something like ‘C:\j2sdk1.4.2’ will be great.

    org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.stopServer()

    This is odd since this is the Stop command, not the Start command. Please double check that you’re issuing a Start, not a Stop. Also, please be sure you’ve configured the Tomcat 5 connector, not the Tomcat 4 connector for use with Tomcat 5.

    First, please make sure that Tomcat isn’t already running outside of MyEclipse.

    Hi Scott.

    1- Yes I did specify the top level directory for a full JDK.
    2- I get two messages. One for Stop and the Other for Start.
    3- I did configure the Tomcat 5 connector.
    4- Tomcat is set to manual in the Windows Services. (Then I try to start via MyEclipse)

    Any other suggestions?

    Vito,

    Did you make any changes at all to the classpath? The class in question is located in C:\Program Files\Apache\Tomcat 5.0\server\lib\catalina.jar on your system. Does the jar exist at this location in your installation? Does it include Catalina.class?

    There’s obviously something wrong with your configuration or installation if this can’t be found because catalina.jar is added to the classpath automatically by the plugin. Very odd.

    Hi Scott,

    I am sorry to bother you.
    Yes the class is in the C:\Program Files\Apache\Tomcat 5.0\server\lib\catalina.jar and yes it does include the Catalina.class file.

    I was wondering can you send me the links to the three softwares that you installed on your machine that work?
    Eclipse
    MyEclipse
    Tomcat 5
    Java

    Maybe that may be my problem?????????

    Thanks

    Hi Scott,

    Also within MyEclipse, is there a place that I would need to configure the port number?
    I did that during the Tomcat install.

    Vito,

    Good idea. Here they are:
    Eclipse 2.1.1: http://download2.eclipse.org/downloads/drops/R-2.1.1-200306271545/download.php?dropFile=eclipse-SDK-2.1.1-win32.zip
    JDK 1.4.2: http://java.sun.com/webapps/download/Redirect/106753868/5847479377282807053505607246086069333228071972022813600060192859339008063305596058473206-3866/j2sdk-1_4_2_01-windows-i586-iftw.exe But that link looks like it will time out so it’s basically the SDK link on this page: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
    Tomcat 5: http://www.tux.org/pub/net/apache/dist/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.12-beta/bin/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.12.exe
    MyEclipse 2.6.2: http://www.myeclipseide.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=getit&lid=21

    That pretty much does it. All software was installed with default settings according to instructions. For Tomcat, I didn’t set it up as a windows service.

    Also within MyEclipse, is there a place that I would need to configure the port number?

    No. When you start Tomcat it will simply start on the port you configured it to start on externally.
