Hi,

I recently installed Parasoft Soatest & Virtualize on MacOS Big Sur with local license and am following the online training.
I added a new Parabank and wanted to start the server but the got the message:
"The Tomcat server configuration at /Servers/ParaBank Tomcat 8.5 Server-config is missing. Check the server for errors."

  1. Where can I check the server for errors?
  2. How can I fix the issue that the Server-config is missing?

    I installed Tomcat and added a new server which is running now. However the parabank cannot be found at http://localhost:8080/parabank.index.htm


    HTTP Status 404 – Not Found
    Type Status Report


    Message /parabank.index.htm


    Description The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists.


    Apache Tomcat/8.5.46

    Any suggestions how to fix this?

    "The Tomcat server configuration at /Servers/ParaBank Tomcat 8.5 Server-config is missing. Check the server for errors."

    Are you creating the "ParaBank Example Project"? It would probably be easiest to try deleting everything and create things again from scratch. By "everything" I mean the "ParaBank" server from the Server's view, the "ParaBank" server runtime from "Windows > Preferences > Server > Runtime Environments", the "Servers" and "ParaBank" projects in your workspace, and the "apache-tomcat" folder that was created in your workspace directory. When you create the ParaBank Example Project once again then all those things will be re-created, including the "Servers" project with any bad or missing files recreated.

    You asked "Are you creating the "ParaBank Example Project"?"
    Yes I am. I executed all of your steps and re-created the Parabank Example Project once again. The server "Parabank Tomcat 8.5 Server" is running (Started, Synchronized) but then I still get the "404-not found message"
    I added localhost* to the proxy exceptions but that did not work as well.

    I guess the bad or missing files are indeed recreated :) How can I find out which one(s) is (are) bad or missing?

    I killed the process Eclipse on port 8080 and when I started Parasoft and the server again, the connection works. So the issue is fixed in my case :)
