Description Petr Jiricka 2002-02-21 13:10:23 UTC 
The presentation of the internal Tomcat installation in the IDE depends on the 
existence of some directories and files in the installation. So for example 
the 'logs' and 'work' directories are required. When one of the directories is 
missing, the 'Internal' installation is not added under Server Registry -> 
Installed Servers -> Tomcat 4.0. 

The installation should attempt to correct itself and create the missing empty 
directories, as it is a common user scenario that the user deletes these 
directories.

To reproduce:
1) Delete the tomcat401/work directory in the IDE installation
2) Start up the IDE
3) Internal installation is not present in the Server Registry, and the user 
has no way to correct it.
Comment 1 Damian Frach 2002-02-22 15:25:39 UTC 
these 4 folders should be moved into the userdir
Comment 2 Milan Kuchtiak 2002-02-22 17:45:52 UTC 
The missing directories "work" and "logs" could be recreated again in 
the Tomcat40Installation method : noServerXML().

This should be done for both internal and external server.
Comment 3 Damian Frach 2002-04-09 12:32:18 UTC 
should be fixed by some other bugfix
