Tomcat 7.0 not getting start from Eclipse

I have installed tomcat 7.0 on my system. When I am trying to run my application on the server from eclipse, it shows me this error

The archive: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 7.0/bin/bootstrap.jar which is referenced by the classpath, does not exist.

What can be the issue?

you have to add class path of java in the environment variable and then add the path of your Tomcat to the PATH.

As your Error shows bootstrap.jar is not in classpath so,

  1. Go through eclipse-->Build path--> configure build path check your server .

  2. Check the your server lib for given jar

  3. If this is not resolve your problem delete your server , install again, and add your server in your new eclipse workspace project.

Hope it will help.

Try deleting the server configuration, and configure the server again.

If it doesn't work, change the server directory location.

If still issue, try un & reinstall of Tomcat. As a last option - try Tomcat 6/8 instead of 7.
