Eclipse BIRT Tomcat 7.041 - birt

i've deployed birt.war on my tomcat 7.0.41. Used manager app to verify that the war file was deployed correctly. if i click on birt path, i get HTTP status 404 - /birt/ error. it says the requested resource is not available. i've stoped and restarted the server multiple times.
Can you help?
TIA,
Thomas

I am answering my own question. New to BIRT. Downloaded the latest one - 4.8. After googling a bit, found out that 4.5 is compatible with tomcat 7. I was able to deploy and run a sample report.

Application server libraries not found in IntelliJ

I am learning Spring MVC and trying to connect IntelliJ IDEA to Tomcat Server. So far I have downloaded the Tomcat 10 tar.gz package from the Tomcat website, extracted and put it at the following location: /Users/roxhens/Tomcat10.
Then, I create a new Spring MVC project and go to:
Add Configuration... > Click + > Tomcat Server > Local and then click Configure and provide the path above.
When I click OK, the following error in the picture shows up: Cannot Save Settings.
Where can I find these Application server libraries?
IntelliJ IDEA 2019.3.x doesn't support Tomcat 10 yet.
Use the supported Tomcat version (9).
If you are on Windows and you installed Tomcat on the primary hard drive of your System, you need to run IntelliJ IDEA as Administrator to be able to add the Tomcat server.
you have to point it to $Path/tomcat#9/9.0.45/libexec

Problems with Osgi plugins in Domino Designer after 9.01. FP4

We have our own OSGI plugin with a set of custom code and some java libraries that we use cross projects. It is installed on servers via an update site and imported on developers Domino Designer.
It is working fine up to FP4, but in Domino Designer it is not added to bundles after FP4. For servers and Notes clients it works fine up to FP6 for which we have tested so far.
Tested now with FP7 on my Domino Designer, and the plugin installs fine both via update site and via manual import. However each time I open a database using this library I get build errors. It solves by going to the code, on the error select correct project configuration and adding our plugin to the required bundles. When I close the database and open again, I have to do the same process and we have the same problem with all databases using this plugin.
I have tested starting Notes with the osgi console, but all reports as it is installed normal there.
When viewing in package explorer before fixing the bundle I can see that the plugin is missing from Plugin dependecies and gets added there when doing the fix.
I just installed a fresh Domino Designer for a new user now and upgraded him directly to FP7. He got exactly the same problem. Downgrading him to FP4 solves the problem.
Anyone having the same problem or have ideas to how it can be solved?

Play framework WAR file won't deploy on tomcat7

I created a Play framework v1.2.5 web service and I've successfully deployed it as a WAR file on Tomcat 7.0.30. It's been working fine for months.
I recently tweaked the code a tiny bit (I literally added trim() to 2 functions). Tested it. It works. I generated a new WAR but it consistently fails to start on the server.
The catalina logs say: geronimo-servlet_2.5_spec-1.2.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class
but I tried removing the jar as previous posts suggest but it's still not working. Others have suggested it is a memory problem. I asked my sysAdmin to increase the memory but he hasn't done it yet.
Am I on the right track or is there another solution?
Solved it! I noticed that the Tomcat 7 server was using an older version of Java.
I had my sys admin upgrade to JDK 1.7x and the darn WAR started working again. That still doesn't explain why it stopped working in the first place.
And yes, the Play 1.2.5 documentation says it only works on tomcat 6x but my company won't roll back to 6.

Eclipse Indigo / WTP - compiled JSP not found [duplicate]

Running Eclipse Indigo, Tomcat 7 on Windows - running the web application on the ROOT context with eclipse wtp plugin I am getting this intermittent problem where eclipse cannot find the compiled JSP. It occurs when first accessing the JSP and cannot be resolved except by stopping the Tomcat server and cleaning the Work directory and the project directory. The compile version is there in the eclipse directory structure:
.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\work\Catalina\localhost\_\org\apache\jsp\WEB_002dINF\...
but it still produces this error.
After some research I found this related thread which seems to suggest the problem only occurs when the application is deployed on ROOT.
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.tomcat.user/208071
And a bug has been entered:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=334977
Has anyone had a similar issue to this and knows a solution?
Hi please try to configure value as per first screen shot and change location as per second screenshot and try if that works for you.

RAD Websphere - EAR not picking up latest jar

I am using RAD 7.0. My web application works with a jar(contains the backend code for our application) which undergoes frequent changes. But whenever I replace the jar in the WebInf/lib folder of the war and restart the server, it does not pick up the latest jar. It keeps referring to the previous jar. I have to undeploy, restart server several times to make the war pick up the latest jar. Has anyone come across this issue? Any pointers will be useful.
Many thanks,
RJ
Is your server configured with "Run with resources within the workspace"?
If so, switch to "Run with resources on the server" and see if this solves the problem.
I have had my share of RAD problems not picking up new code, especially on RAD 6.0 and 7.0; on RAD 7.5, IBM finally seemed to have a grip on these issues.
You can also do a server clean to force the temp and work dirs to be cleaned and the code to be republished. RAD 7 has a problems and if you can upgrade to 7.5 many get resolved in that version.
