JBoss support in Eclipse

[ayub.hp]

Hi,

I am setting up Eclipse for JBoss.

I did little research and downloaded Eclipse Ganymede 3.4.2 and JBoss tools version 3.0.1 GA. Is this combination enough for JBoss support on eclipse for JSF,Hibernate development ?

Could any one advise me on the version of Eclipse and JBoss plugin that must be installed.

Is there any software bundle from JBoss which comes with JBoss and Eclipse ?

Thanks and Regards
Ayub

You have to install Eclipse WTP/Data Tools... as well.
Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/ganymedesr2 contains all you need.
See http://www.jboss.org/tools/download/installation.html for more info.

...and yes, JBoss Developer Studio is the product that bundles this and make it work out-of-the-box.

JBoss Tools is just the plugins.

I have installed Eclipse Ganymede 3.4.2 and JBoss tools 3.0.1 GA,

I am setting JBoss server 4.0.5 in test environment, however the server is not starting. I get server not started within 50seconds error. I have increased the start time of server, still issue persists. I am using JDK 1.5.6

Could any one suggest some tips on resolving this issue ?

Thanks and Regards

Have you changed the ports that JBoss AS uses? If you have, then unless you also change the config within Eclipse, the tools will not recognize that the app server has started.

When you start the app server in Eclipse, the Console View should shows the console log output, the last line of which will be the "started in" line. Are you seeing that line? If not, what is in the Console View? Please post it.

Also you can try to change the Startup poller to Timeout poller in the server editor.
How to do it see our docs (the 'Server editor' section)
