I’m having some problems configure tomcat 7 on Eclipse 3.6 . The enviroment is a notebook with o.s. Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
Before this upgrade i work succesfully with tomcat 6 on Eclipse 3.6 but my switch on the newer tomcat is an evil! I repeat every instructions that I use to configure tomcat 6, but it doesn’t works!
If I launch tomcat inside eclipse without monitored applications installed it works, as I add one application, it crashes.What I’m missing?
Here’s tomcat log :
