tomcat 5.5 in eclipse 3.2

[joseph prabhu]

i have eclipse 3.2 and i unzipped the tomcat 5.5.27.

i tried to add the server in eclipse 3.2. when i start the tomcat server

it is not gettting started. in the console it gives as.

This release of Apache Tomcat was packaged to run on J2SE 5.0 
or later. It can be run on earlier JVMs by downloading and 
installing a compatibility package from the Apache Tomcat 
binary download page.

i also have jdk1.5.

but these problem does not arise when i start in netbeans 6.01.

But are you sure that you are using Java 5 to run Tomcat?

In Eclipse, select the menu Window / Preferences, then select Server / Runtime Environments. Click on your Tomcat server and click the Edit... button. In the configuration window, you'll see a select box where you can choose the JRE to run Tomcat with. Select your Java 5 JRE.

If your Java 5 JRE isn't listed, then click on the button "Installed JREs..." to add your Java 5 JRE to the list first.
