I was able to resolve the issue. I found: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62764029/unknown-version-of-tomcat-was-specified-with-tomcat-9-0-37 --you need to open the folder once --It will ask you for permission to enter after which its contents will be visible to you as well as Eclipse --after setting up and installing Tomcat, open the folder & then try connecting from Eclipse --Instead of changing permissions, try this
I had to change permissions, and that took some jiggling, but I can open and access the Tomcat folder, now You may wish to add this to your documentation And now, when I tried to start the Tomcat server from Eclipse (even though it is running in Services) I am seeing: The server cannot be started because one or more of the ports are invalid. Open the server editor and correct the invalid ports. I set the admin port to 8005. After more searching, I stopped the Tomcat server in Services and tried to start in eclipse. omgosh, it worked. good grief. and, thank you, Stephanie On Thu, Mar 9, 2023 at 6:36 PM Stephanie Panah <stephanie.pa...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Help please.
