Deploy at server startup missing artifcat option
Answered
Hey,
I am trying to deploy a java web application to a tomcat server and in the Tomcat configuration i went over to the Deployment tab in order to add the artifact but only have the External Source option.

Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks :)

There is a Fix button, click it to add a new artifact, see https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/artifacts.html.
I actully tried it and have an artifact configured, as you can see in the picture in "Before launch" i have told the tomcat to build it...
Any more suggestions?
You've configured the wrong artifact type. jars cannot be deployed on the web application servers, use war exploded or war.
