I'm not sure if this is related but here goes: I just installed Feisty, both sun-java-1.5 and sun-java-6, eclipse, and tomcat 5.5 from the official Ubuntu repositories. (in fact, this is my first time install of Ubuntu and it went swimmingly well except for tomcat 5.5)
anyway - I found a bunch of bugs reported on debian regarding tomcat - apparently it creates a named pipe for /var/lib/tomcat5.5/logs/catalina.out and then opens it in the background in the /etc/inti.d/tomcat5.5 config file (about line 150 or so) Apparently, this creates a hang (because the pipe cant' be written to or something like that - i.e. there's no side 2 to the pipe) which makes it so that tomcat5.5 doesn't actually fully instantiate - is it possible that because tomcat5.5 really isn't there that eclipse can't find it because it's looking for a socket to talk to rather than the actual path/dir/filename now you know why my nick is what it is (I really have no clue what all the above is REALLY about but it sounded good) -- Eclipse can not see tomcat installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123865 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
