[java] build-impl.xml:1031: The module has not been deployed

I have been working on a Java web application and i am using SmartGwt on Netbeans 7.3 and out of a sudden I encountered this problem. I tried cleaning the build-impl.xml then restarting the IDE and I should say I have fairly low knowledge on this. Can someone please tell me why it is giving an error and how I can fix that?

The error message says :

nbproject/build-impl.xml:1031: The module has not been deployed. See the server log for details. 
BUILD FAILED (total time: 4 seconds)

Note: i am using Tomcat 7.0.34

If you add jars in tomcat's lib folder you can see this error

• Close Netbeans.
• Delete all libraries in the folder "yourprojectfolder"\build\web\WEB-INF\lib
• Open Netbeans.
• Clean and Build project.
• Deploy project.

One of the main reason for this error is due to permission not granted to all users. so remove this error, follow the following steps :
1) Go to the C:/Programme Files/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 7.0
2) Right click on the Tomcat 7.0 folder and click on properties.
3) go to Security Tab.
4) Select the User and click on Edit... button
5) Grant all the permission to the user and click on apply and ok.
Refresh the system and now try. I hope it will work

Take a look at the server logs!

I had been with this for hours. The awful Tomcat servlet is not very helpful neither but if you can see the stacktrace that should be enough.

For instance, I read the following error message there:

As you can see, the message was pretty clear and easy to fix :-)

if you still getting this error try this.

1. Go to Netbeans services
2. Remove Apache Tomcat.
3. Add Apache Tomcat again.
4. Build Project.
5. Deploy Project

Start your IDE with administrative privilege( Windows: right click and run as admin), so that it has read write access to tomact folder for deployment. It worked for me.

• Check if there any other instance of the server is running already
• Check if the port that will be used by the server is free.

Check whether you placed the within the .. or outside the ... If you placed it outside the server tag , and if you try to access the init-parameter then it will give error.
