OpenMRS Tomcat IntelliJ deployment freeze fixOpenmrs - 1.9.0 After deploying to Tomcat from IntelliJ; I keep getting this error: Artifact openmrs-webapp:war exploded: Server is not connected. Application Server was not connected before run configuration stop, reason: Unable to ping server at localhost:1099 The error is exactly similar to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19068977/intellij-cant-start-simple-web-application-unable-to-ping-server-at-localhost but on windows and editing the hostfile did not make a difference. The deployment process starts and freezes before the point where it should actually deploy the war file - "Artifact is being deployed, please wait..." However I am on Windows 7 x64. I tried all the SO thread advice till I found one where it advised to remove the setenv.bat from C:\Programs\tomcat6\bin. When I removed it, I still get the message, but my deployment works and I can launch the webapp fine. Also move the setenv.bat fole confs to IntelliJ as shown below(also removed the java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space error): IntelliJ IDEA instructs Tomcat to use temporary directory as CATALINA_BASE where it places context configuration with the Artifact path from your project settings, it doesn't copy your web application into webapps directory.
