Answer 1

Create a runtime environment for Tomcat 7, but when you asked for tomcat_home or catalina_home use the path you want. I should run fine. I've made myself on MyEclipse and Tomcat 8. This is very fun because Tomcat 8 is unknown to the MyEclipse is too old. Your Luna is too young and should have a server runtime environment for Tomcat 8. Sure you can use a pro version of eclipse to make it working.

Have you installed the **Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developer Luna?** Have you installed or unzip the Tomcat 7 to your local folder? If all answer is yes, you need to add it in Server Environment to your Eclipse:

Step1:

Step 2:
    Click Add - expand Apache - Select Apache Tomcat 7
Step 3:
    Browse the Tomcat Installation folder or you can just click   
    the Download and Install
Step 4:
    Click Finished

Next is add the Server to Server View

Step 1:
    Click Window menu - View - Servers
Step 2:
    If you see "No servers available" Click the link to create a new instance
Step 3:
    Select "Tomcat v7.0 Server" from Server Type
Step 4:
    Select "Apache Tomcat v7.0" from the drop down "Server runtime environment"
