Created attachment 12645 [details] Example of "Please Wait..." in the Filesystems tab of Explorer
I believe this refers specifically to the Tomcat plugin nodes, doesn't it? Assigning to Petr P.
This actually is no longer an issue because we do not try to start the server when users expand the manager node in server registry tree. If the server is not running the manager node will have no children. When the server started, the manager will be refreshed with children nodes.
I'm going to do it as soon as possible.
So, now all actions (start, stop, undeploy over web module node and refresh over tomcat instance node) are executed in request processor. During refresh action or creating web modules node the wait node is placed as children of Web Modules node holder. The wait node is replaced after finishing the action. Start, stop and undeploy action also write starting and result message to the status bar.
