Please specify precise steps to reproduce.
It was the first time that I tried to use a tomcat server that had been previously defined in 6.0. When I tried to start the tomcat server I noticed it lost it's name. I removed the tomcat server and defined a new one and everything worked well.
Could it be duplicate of issue 172219?
It could well be. It's an issue with importing the settings, when I create a new server everything is fine.
Unless we get more duplicates I would consider it duplicate (in fact manifestation of) issue 172219. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 172219 ***
