How can I configure a server in Eclipse?

Question

When I start my Tomcat server, I am getting a problem described by the error messages listed below.

How can I resolve this problem?

WARNING: [SetPropertiesRule]{Server/Service/Engine/Host/Context} Setting property 'source' to 'org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.server:openbravo' did not find a matching property.

This doesn't harm. Eclipse is just adding an extra attribute to Tomcat's <Context> element to be able to associate the deployed webapp with a particular project. Tomcat is just jerking because it don't recognize it as one of the predefined <Context> attributes. It's however trying to be helpful for the case the enduser actually made a typo and so on. Just ignore it. You won't see it when you export the webapp and deploy it on a real production server.

I'm no Seam guy, but Google learns me that you may get this when you've configured your JPA to use JTA transactions and didn't configure <security:jpa-permission-store> in Seam's components.xml. To fix this, either add the permission store or configure JPA to use resource local transactions only.

This is a custom/wrapped exception which doesn't give much helpful information away. We're more interested in the root cause of the exception. Look further in the stack trace for the root cause part of this exception. It will tell about the, uhm, root cause of the problem :)

Nonetheless, none of the problems as far are related to the literal question "How to configure server in Eclipse?". You seem to already have done it successfully. The first problem is ignorable. The second problem is related to Seam/JPA. The third problem is related to Openbravo ERP. You may consider to ask separate questions about them to fix the one and other.
