[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-12585) remote publishing gives weird error when not pointing to exact expected directory layout

remote publishing gives weird error when not pointing to exact expected directory layout ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-12585 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12585 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Bug Components: JBossAS/Servers Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen Assignee: Rob Stryker setup an ASx server to deploy remotely (i.e. on openshift) and point to a directory that *does not* have standalone/deployments already in it - then at publish time you get errors like: "failed to copy to /home/max/work/standalone/deployments/test.war/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF on host neo6.gva.redhat.com Missing element for : ''" Not very informative. If you fix the server to point to a directory that have standalone/deployments already things starts working again. The error should be more informative - optimally ask the user if the missing directories should be made ? Didnt we at some point have a "verify" button for the remote setup to check if directories were present?
