[FIXED] Tools jar does not exist Eclipse JAVA

Issue

The archive: C:/Java/jdk1.6.0_26-32/lib/tools.jar which is referenced by the classpath, does not exist.

This is the error I have when run Tomcat. There was no problem cleaning or publishing - only when i start the Tomcat server.

Now, I checked my folders and there is a tools.jar in file path C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_34\lib

What am i missing?

using jre6 and have jdk1.6.0_34 installed

Solution

Right click on your eclipse project, In Preferences go to Java > Installed JREs, select your JDK and click on Edit. In the new Dialog you can add external jars like tools.jar to your execution environment.
