I finished setting up the project and published the all projects to eclipse tomcat directory, while starting the tomcat I was getting below error

Server Tomcat v5.5 Server at localhost failed to start.

And I was trying to find the reason for failing, and want to see the eclipse error logs. At this point of time I was not very sure about where the logs are kept for eclipse internal errors or eclipse exception stack trace. Then tried looking here and there in the eclipse, and finally found.

  1. Go to the pulg-in development perspective from open perspective at top right side.
  2. Then you would be able to see Error log tab at bottom side of eclipse.
  3. In Error log tab you can find the all eclipse errors.
  4. Double click on the error to see more information

You can also do below to see the Error log tab
Go to Window --> Show view --> General --> Error log

To see more detailed error log information about eclipse internal errors or eclipse plug-in errors go to your {workspace-folder}/.metadata/.log file.
