I’m running Intellij IDEA 10.5 and I’ve set up my default ftp server (File|Settings|Deployment),
but when I’m right-clicking on my project I still see Deployment option inactive (see below):
I’m new to IDEA, so I’m sure that it is not a bug, but my misunderstanding of
how one should enable ftp deployment in IDEA.
What should I do to enable it?
Please, give me a clue to solve this problem!
This is the only remaining thing that keeps me from
using IDEA instead of Eclipse in my development.
I think you need to make sure that the path mappings are correctly entered in the “Mappings” tab of your deployment configuration.
If the mappings tab is not correctly filled out, a warning will be shown in that tab (e.g. “Deployment path is not specified”).
The upload/compare/download menu entries for the deployment configuration will be greyed out as long as the mappings are not defined.
I had the same problem and it was resolved by entering the correct path mappings.
