Description Martin Grebac 2004-02-19 12:08:43 UTC 
Add new shared server instance - as a basedir
choose some existing empty directory. Set the
instance as default.
Convert sampledir to webmodule and try to execute it.

Exception comes:

[catch]java.lang.Exception:
tomcat:home=/local/tomcat/tomcat-5018:base=/local/tomcat/shared:http://localhost:8080/manager/
org.netbeans.modules.tomcat5.ide.MonitorSupport.synchronizeMonitorWithFlag(MonitorSupport.java:103)
org.netbeans.modules.tomcat5.ide.StartTomcat$StartRunnable.run(StartTomcat.java:266)

This is because we are checking (whether create
basedir or not) just for an existence of a
directory, and nothing else. We should handle case
when the directory is empty, at least.

The problem was bigger than described here, but it's fixed in trunk.
