Description Curtis

2011-10-11 16:43:24 EDT

Build Identifier:  M20110909-1335

Following the help instructions to create an information center that can be deployed as a web archive is not producing a working war file.  With eclipse 3.7 and 3.7.1 I get this reported by the tomcat server.

All files are in their expected locations.  
Also this works in eclipse 3.5.x and 3.6.x

I'll see if I can figure out the problem, most likely it is a missing bundle.

What version of the Tomcat server are you running?

Comment 3 Curtis

2011-10-11 18:42:31 EDT

I am running the SpringSource tc-server spring edition which is the 
tomcat 6.0.26.A Release

I can reproduce the problem using Tomcat 6 and Eclipse 3.7.

Comment 5 Chris Goldthorpe

The problem is that the org.eclipse.help.webapp bundle is not activated due to a missing dependency, org.apache.lucene.core.

Can you add org.apache.lucene.core to the plug-ins section of /org.eclipse.help.infocenter-feature/feature.xml and repeat the steps. Everything should work after that.

The same problem exists in the Eclipse 3.8 development stream, I have committed a fix to master with commit message:

working in Eclipse 3.7

Comment 7 Curtis

2011-10-12 13:43:58 EDT

I added the plugin id to the feature.xml file and can now build an information center web archive file that works on tomcat 6.

Thanks for finding the solution.
