Comment on Replace diff/merge tool in Visual Studio Team System with WinMerge by HoppingYop

Me and my team mates echo everyone’s replies here. We are very thankful for this post. WinMerge is definitely a much superior tool than the one VS includes, and this post makes it very easy to integrate it in VS.

Thanks again.

Wish I’d made the effort to set this up years ago, thanks for making it so smooth & easy for me.

Paul,

Thank you for your answer. I should have mentioned that I though about that and I included the prefix “http://” when trying to access the server from IE, additionally I went ahead and I installed Chrome. It is interesting that in IE I get the bad request error, but in Chrome I get a blank page that only says “fail”. Additionally, I should mention that I added the variable %JAVA_HOME% to the environment variables and to path, but not success yet. Any ideas ?. Thanks,

Boris

Are you using Internet Explorer when trying to get to the http://localhost:8080 URL ? If so, make sure you are using the http:// prefix – IE doesn’t seem to route correctly without it.

Otherwise try Chrome and see if you have the same issue.

I seem to have the same issue with IE – you need to specify the http:// prefix otherwise IE does not seem to be able to route correctly to the site.

Paul,

Thank you for all the information you have in here. It is definitively very useful. I have the same problem than manolis and Mohammed. Basically when I try to open http://localhost:8080 I get the webpage not found error, but the apache icon still shows up in the inferior right corner. I went to the file you said and I get this from there: “Connector port=”8080″ redirectPort=”8443″ connectionTimeout=”20000″ protocol=”HTTP/1.1″/”. So I am assuming the port 8080 is correct. I have installed tomcat 6.0.33 in a windows 7 professional machine. I have tried giving the tomcat executable administrator privileges (right click, compatibility), I have tried installing tomcat 7, I have tried restarting the machine multiple times, I have tried both installing jre 7 and jdk 7, I have tried starting tomcat from eclipse. Nothing seems to work. I feel that I am running out of ideas. Any suggestion ?

Boris
