Hi, I found the problem, albeit it is a silly one. I had a plugin named kawigiedit ( @ Topcoder ) which had created a javac folder in the bin directory. So when eclipse tried to deploy to appengine it tried to open a folder instead of the binary. I removed the directory and things worked just fine. This brings one thing to my mind, shouldn't the eclipse plugin evoke javac.exe instead of javac which might be appropriate for *nix systems.
