Dola, I have not had a problem just renaming the current c:\eclipse directory to c:\eclipse_old and then installing (unzipping) the WTP all-in-one bundle - as follows.
The only thing different I do is that I have all of my plugins in a separate directory. I do this by creating a directory c:\eclipse\links with a single file in it with this single line: path=C:/EclipsePluginsStable Then all of my plugins are installed in C:/EclipsePluginsStable/eclipse/plugins I can "usually" upgrade eclipse and (as long as the plugins are upward compatible) everything still works. Of course I also keep my workspace separate in c:\EclipseProjects\workspace\ This makes it much easier to upgrade or play with new versions of Eclipse. BTW - I too am transitioning from using sysdeo Tomcat plugin to using WTP. For now I am still using Sysdeo to run and debug Tomcat, but by having WTP installed I get all of the JSP/CSS/etc editors, cross-referencing between JSPs and Java files, etc. Its very nice.

I downloaded the all-in-one package, but that seems to have everything, including Eclipse! I'm afraid that if I were to use that it'll overwrite my current settings and other plugins in the Eclipse installation that I already have. Maybe I should just download "Runtime". Basically, I'm confused by all of this! Please help. Thanks! Dola __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
