Eclipse – Cannot create a server using the selected type

Published by jackoonadmin in Eclipse, JAVA on September 7th, 2011 | 6 Comments »

To resolve this error, try one or all of the following:

1.  Go to Window–>Preferences–>Server–>Runtime Environments and fix the broken path/link for the server

2.  Rename the org.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.core.prefs to org.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.core.prefs.bak (or you can delete this file).

This file can be found at workspace > .metadata > .plugins > org.eclipse.core.runtime > .settings

3.  Rename the org.eclipse.wst.server.core.prefs to org.eclipse.wst.server.core.prefs.bak (or delete the file).  This file also can be found at the same location as above

      JIM, I found the problem. I was using team SVN plug-in iteasnd of subclipse tigris 1.2.4. It works with the tigris-subclipse (1.2.4), but not with the other svn plug-ins. I don’t like to use subiclpise because it does not let me lock the files recursively by right clicking on the folder.Thanks, Prerna
