Hi.
I want to configure Jboss 4.2.1.GA with eclipse 3.2. but while defining this server in eclipse it is asking me for javax.servlet.jar should be there in server/default Lib. Can anyone help me how to solve this issue.
Or Jboss 4.2.1.GA with eclipse 3.2 is not supported. I also tried to include plugin of jboss in eclipse from the site http://jboss.sourceforge.net/jbosside/updates but everytime it is giving an error Network connection problems encountered during search. Please help me by providing detailed solution.

Thanking you in anticipation.

JBoss IDE is a defunct project that has been replaced by JBoss Tools. Here is the download page: http://www.jboss.org/tools/download

Is there any way you could upgrade to the latest version of Eclipse? There is probably an older version of Tools that supports Eclipse 3.2, but it will be hard to get support for it. Also, finding someone willing to help with such an old version of Eclipse will be difficult.

As far as the JAR file locations are concerned, in Eclipse 3.4.2 there is a plugins/org.eclipse.jst.server.generic.jboss_1.5.206.v20090115/servers/jboss42.serverdef file which defines the locations of key JAR files. See if a similar file exists in 3.2 and edit it. (I am assuming that you picked jboss42 when creating a server)

Hi Peter,
I want to start the installation afresh. Can you tell me any url from where I can download eclipse which by default contains any application server say jboss.Please clearly tell me the eclipse name to be downloaded because in the past i faced a lot of problem in ganemede eclipse,they were not showing the j2ee perspective,hence no server could be added to them. If this is not possible what i require to do after downloading jboss tool from the url http://www.jboss.org/tools/download .


Thanking you in anticipation.

I understand your frustration - in earlier versions of Eclipse getting it and the JBoss plugins working was not easy. But things have gotten much better recently.

For Eclipse, at http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ download "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers".

After downloading, unpack and run it. Then in Help | Software Updates, on the Available Software tab click Add Site and enter one of the URLs from http://www.jboss.org/tools/download. I recommend either Stable Updates "JBoss Tools 3.0 :: Eclipse 3.4.2" or Development Updates "JBoss Tools 3.0 :: Eclipse 3.4.2" (right-click on the link in your browser and select the copy URL menu option). Then back on the Eclipse Software Updates dialog click Install.

Here are the JBoss Tools docs: http://docs.jboss.org/tools/3.0.1.GA/ The Getting Started guide contains full installation instructions (section 1.4.2)
