I also had the issue of the Eclipse Tomcat Server timing out and tried every suggestion including    increasing timeout seconds deleting various  metadata files in workspace directory deleting the server instance in Eclipse along with the Run Config   Nothing worked until I read Rohitdev s comment and realized that I had  in fact added a breakpoint in an interceptor class after a big code change and had forgotten to toggle it off   I removed it and all other breakpoints and Tomcat started right up

Go to server View Double click the server for which you want to change the time limit On the right hand side you have timeouts dropdown tab  Select that  You then have option to change the time limits

This problem can occur if you have altogether too much stuff being started when the server is started -- or if you are in debug mode and stepping through the initialization sequence   In eclipse  changing the start-timeout by  opening  the tomcat server entry  Servers view  tab of the Debug Perspective is convenient   In some situations it is useful to know where this setting is  really  stored   Tomcat reads this setting from the  element in the  element in the servers xml file   This file is stored in the   metatdata  plugins org eclipse wst server core directory of your eclipse workspace  ie      metadata  plugins org eclipse wst server core servers xml  There are other juicy configuration files for Eclipse plugins in other directories under  metadata  plugins as well   Here s an example of the servers xml file  which is what is changed when you edit the tomcat server configuration through the Eclipse GUI                  Note the  start-timeout  property that is set to a good long 1200 seconds above

Double click on server and see the timeouts section and add more time look at the picture

The issue is also created if you have setup breakpoints in the code and trying to start tomcat in debug mode post some code overhaul   Solution is to clear all the breakpoints

SOLVED  That s it     For me was compiling with JDK6 but running Tomcat with JDK7  WST uses the system properties and not the eclipse settings  I also configure the same JDK Version in eclipse and in System  check it with java -version in cmd line   Details  I try to configure eclipse like describe here  but it didn  t solve the problem  then I notice in eclipse  s error log that tomcat was started with jre 1 7  in spite of my configurations   I also try  in cmd line   java -version  and obtained  1 7  instead of expected  1 6    I also decide to configure java 1 6  like in eclipse  in system panel but it didn  t solve the problem  I also desinstall jre 1 7 restart eclipse AND IT SUCCESS    It was a very usefull clue  thank you
