App.server.dir is invalid, please reconfigure Plugins SDK setting: app server dir=E:\...

I am using Eclipse Neon.3 +Liferay IDE 3.1.0 B1

is there anything to be changed in the build.properties?

Hello Jobin,
I suggest you could check this one "app.server.tomcat.dir=${app.server.parent.dir}/tomcat-*** " in build.properties file, if it is different with your tomcat version, you could config "app.server.tomcat.dir" in your build.${username}.properties file or change tomcat version in build.properties file.

If you still have problem, please feel free ask.

Ying.

Hi Ying Xu,

I'm also facing same problem,

App.server.dir is invalid, please reconfigure Plugins SDK setting: app server dir=E:\...

.
1) Plugin folder: ../com.liferay.portal.plugins.sdk-1.0.11
In plugin folder I have only one property files i.e., build.properties and the entry of app.server is like below:

app.server.tomcat.dir=${app.server.parent.dir}/tomcat-8.0.32

2) In liferay portal folder, tomcat version is same, see below:
D:\Softwares\Liferay\liferay-ce-portal-7.0-ga4\tomcat-8.0.32

But still I'm facing same problem

App.server.dir is invalid, please reconfigure Plugins SDK setting: app server dir=E:\...

Could you please help here.

Thanks,
Ashu Phaugat

Hey Ashu,

You said that "In plugin folder I have only one property files i.e., build.properties ". That's right. The build.${usename}.properties file is created by user. For me, the user name of my computer is liferay, and then I create a file named build.liferay.properties.
And following is my file content:
app.server.type = tomcat
app.server.parent.dir = F:/liferay-bundle/liferay-ce-portal-7.0-ga2
app.server.tomcat.dir = ${app.server.parent.dir}/tomcat-8.0.32

Hope thatt can work for u.
