Getting Flex Builder to use a Tomcat server on Eclipse

Question

I'm currently trying to get a Tomcat server I have running in Eclipse on http ://localhost:8080/ to be noticed through Flex Builder 4. I think it may have to do with the config.xml file in my Flex Builder project. It is currently set as the following (as well as some other stuff)

<config>
 <server>
 http://localhost:8080/myty/myy?p1=a1
 </server>
 <iroot>
 c:</iroot>
 <oroot>
 c:</oroot>

I think it may be that I am using a Mac and there is no C drive on a Mac. However, I think it may also be the server location. I tried taking the part after 8080 out, but then I just get errors and nothing happens as opposed to the actual server page showing up.

You can use lcds or blazeds to push your application to an app server like tomcat. I haven't tried configuring my installation of tomcat to it. But I have worked with the tomcat installation that lcds provides. Works fine.

You can read up on configuring tomcat to lcds here http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/es/lcds_installation.html#tomcat

Let me know how it goes
