Hi, I have a web application and try to configure a Jetty server configuration to run it. But I keep getting this error that says “Tomcat Server Already Exists” and not letting me to save/create the run config. See screenshot. Has anyone experience this? What can I do to resolve this?

My IntelliJ version is:

IntelliJ IDEA 2024.3 (Ultimate Edition)
Build #IU-243.21565.193, built on November 12, 2024
 

Thanks,

Zee

Hi, thanks for sharing the log, I found some similar traces regarding the Application Server, please upvote and follow https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-373499/Cant-add-a-new-application-server-in-settings-if-it-was-created-in-other-vrsions.-Symbolic-id-already-exists?backToIssues=false to get updates.
