--------------------------------------------------

Thanks Tim.

Please see below comments from Sachin in a discussion on [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
1. You can't start a remote server that is stopped.  "Start" from a remote 
server perspective means just connecting to it.  But it has to be started 
outside of eclipse.  If the remote server is stopped then pressing start will 
just attempt to connect several times and then fail.
2. If the server is a "remote" server.  Hitting start will attempt to connect 
to it... if successful then the state will automatically change to started.  If 
it fails we should be able to display a slightly different error stating that 
the server is remote and the connection to it failed and must be started 
manually.

Agreed that is the current implementation. But when I look from a user 
perspective, I feel if we allow users to "Stop" a remote server, then we should 
as well allow them to "Start" the remote server. Don't  know if there is some 
technical limitation that doesn't allow "Start of Remote Server". Else I 
propose that we alter current behavior of "Start" operation to actually "Start 
the Remote Server".

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: eclipse-plugin
>         Environment: Geronimo Eclipse Plug-in v1.2.1 and v2.0
>            Reporter: Shiva Kumar H R

> Scenario: Using Eclipse to deploy apps to a remote instance of Geronimo.
> Add a remote instance of Geronimo server (say v2.0) inside Eclipse as per the 
> instructions in 
> http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/os-ag-remotedeploy/index.html
> Upon trying to Start that remote Geronimo server from within Eclipse, it 
> immediately fails with an error "Server Apache Geronimo v2.0 Server at 
> <remote-server-name> failed to start."
> However if the remote server is manually started (outside of Eclipse), after 
> a while its state changes to "Started" inside Eclipse. And we can 
> deploy/redeploy/undeploy & stop the remote server.
