Tomcat project cleaning error

Question

When I try to clean the project from tomcat. I\'m getting this error:

Could not delete . May be locked by another process.

Answer 1

First of all, try to just restart tomcat.

Then, try to clean everything:

• Clean the Tomcat server: in Eclipse, right click on Tomcat vX.Y Server > Clean.
• Clean the project: menu Project > Clean.
• Clean the resource of the server: click the ‣ next to Tomcat vX.Y Server, underneath it your project is displayed, right click it and select "Clean Module Work Directory..."

You can also try to start the server in Debug mode: right click Tomcat vX.Y Server > Debug.
