Rob Stryker resolved JBIDE-5739.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
This is a by-design feature of eclipse and has been discussed here a few times.
The console tab can be used by many things. One of the biggest users, obviously, is to
look at the console of launched java programs, servers, etc.
In order to minimize bundle activations, the console is built on extension points.
Contributors can share their findings with the console, rather than the console going and
searching for participants.
What this means is that upon a fresh install, assuming you have not yet switched to the
debug perspective, the debug.ui plugin is *not* loaded yet. The debug.ui plugin is the one
which contributes the data to the console. So since this bundle is not yet loaded, it
cannot share its findings with the console.
The ways to fix this are many, but it boils down to activating the debug.ui bundle. There
are a few ways to do it. Switch to the debug perspective, open the debug-as launch
configuration tab, or in the server-view, right-click on the server and select "show
in -> console".
Each of these things should force-load the debug.ui plugin and allow that plugin to
contribute its findings to the console.
Missing Server Console

Key: JBIDE-5739
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-5739
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JBossAS
Environment: jbdevstudio-win32-3.0.0.v201001060655N-H50-CR1
Reporter: Burr Sutter
Assignee: Rob Stryker
Attachments: Console_Tab_Issue.pdf
The Console Tab (Java EE perspective) does not display the server output upon a new
installation nor after an "eclipse.exe -clean".
See attached document for my flow.
The workaround was captured by Aaron in this document:
http://community.jboss.org/wiki/SOA-P43WorkshopLabExamples
Page 22 of the PDF file says
"Sometimes the console tab does not show the output of the server. If it does not,
click on the "Console" tab, select the dropdown icon in the top right corner of
the console tab and choose "Java Stack Trace Console". Then, you should see more
icons to the left of the dropdown you selected. Select the next dropdown to the left and
choose "SOA-P 4.3 Server"."
