    I am using MyEclipse with Eclipse 3.1m7 and Tomcat 5.0.27, and every web project in my workspace has just become useless.

    When I try to deploy one to a Tomcat 5 server, I get an empty error dialog (red X icon but no message.) If I redeploy, I don’t get an error, but the webapp doesn’t appear in Tomcat’s webapps directory.

    Another one can no longer be deployed because MyEclipse refuses to automatically supply a path for the exploded archive or to accept any path I give it.

    I tried undeploying and redeploying, disable and reenaabling the server, and even re-creating the Tomcat tree from the distribution ZIP, no luck. The only thing that has worked so far (for two of the web projects) is re-creating the project from scratch in another directory, manually reapplying all of the project properties, and copying all of the files over from the old project.

    Please advise.

    Thanks,
    Jonathan

    Jonathan,
    I don’t know what version of MyEclipse you are using but either way we would strongly suggest you do a fresh install of Eclipse 3.1 Final and MyEclipse 4.0 Milestone 2 for Eclipse 3.1 and then import your projects into the new workspace. Eclipse 3.1M7 was a particularly buggy release for ME as a lot of underlying changes went into it, so I’m not surprised you are seeing some issues (however odd they sound). Of course if you are using MyEclipse 4 M2 on your install of M7, that would explain why “Everything is broken”.
