I am running eclipse version 2.1.1 on Windows XP along with
J2sdk1.4.2_02 with tomcat version 4.1.29 and sysdeo tomcat launcher
plugin version 201. I am new to the eclipse platform and have
installed the components following all the tutorials i could find on
the subject over the net. However, i am not able to run Tomcat from
eclipse and i keep getting a NoClassDefFound exception. Ive set all
the configuration settings including selecting JDK for the VM and the
class path variables as outlined in the tutorials and even tried
different versions of sysdeo but to no avail. I would appreciate any
help in this regard similarly id appreciate if someone with a working
combination of tomcat, eclipse and sysdeo tomcat launcher on
preferrably a windows platform could post the respective product
version numbers and the settings that were made.

I think you have encountered a problem related to a space(or blank) in the
installation Directory of Tomcat. Just change thedirectory name of your
Tomcat installation and make sure it doesn't contain any blanks.
Also check your version of the Sysdeo plugin, I believe they have released a
version that solves this problem (but I'm not sure)

I had the same problem when I changed from Tomcat 4.1.27 to 4.1.29.
Changing the Tomcat version from 4.1.x to 5.x in the plugin works
fine for me.
Best,
Manfred
