[Opensource] Expresso and Eclipse

Hello,

This is probably old news for you, but in case it helps...

I just ran into the same problem as you not with Expresso, but with some
other monkey business I'm up to. The problem is that that when the Sysdeo
plugin runs Tomcat under Eclipse, Tomcat can't see the sun compiler class
sun.tools.javac.Main which it needs for compiling JSP's into servlets.

The remedy is to make tools.jar visible to Tomcat. You can do that by going
to Windows / Preferences / Tomcat / JVM Settings, and adding tools.jar to
the middle input area for "Classpath ('Before generated classpath)"

Cheers,
alexis

Hi Everyone,
I tried to run Expresso under Eclipse, following the guidance from
Jcorporate website.
Expresso seems to start with no errors however when I try to access
expresso/frames.jsp this is what I get:
javax.servlet.ServletException: sun/tools/javac/Main
at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:481)
at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853)
at
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(Application
FilterChain.java:247)
Any ideas what might be causing this?
Thanks for the help.
