[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-18737?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-18737: ------------------------------------- When a server is added to the workspace, a server lifecycle listener (XPathModel) sees this, and fires a job to add the xml configurations needed: categories (ports) and specific xpaths. You may consider adding a job listener to make sure the workspace has no jobs running before expanding the tree. If that doesn't fix it, there have, in the past, been issues with our UnitedServerListener, a quick utility class we have in ASTools to make it easier to add listeners for specific server events. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=437351 This specific bug was "patched" but was not actually added to any of the wtp builds (an error on their side). We also have a workaround in our astools code which I never removed, but which is not 100%. The effect of this bug is that sometimes, it's possible a specific listener does not get added to the servertools framework. Our workaround has a high chance of working around this, but again, not 100%. But I somehow doubt this is the issue. Can you detail what TP you're using? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.8#6338)
