Eddie, Since you put it that way, the culprit was probably spaces in the path such as in the directory "C:\Program Files". I had that happen to me in Windows XP with Tomcat 5.X.XX until I used the short "dir /x" names. For Program files it was "c:\progra~1"

I reinstalled to C:\Tomcat\5.0 and then deleted my Tomcat config and created a new one and everything seems to be working alright now. It's really cool. I can totally debug anything right in Eclipse! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eddie Bush" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 29, 2004 6:34 AM Subject: Re: [OT] Eclips 3.01 + IBM WTP + Tomcat 5 > WTP = Web Tools Platform > > I've seen the Sysdedo plugin, but I was trying to keep my environment here > congruent with what's at work.
