eclipse/tomcat: deploy doesn’t work any more (ClassNotFoundException)

While on Tomcat 6 and Eclipse Ganymede I found out the following chain to work like charm:

1 stop server

2 project -> clean

3 project build (I had automatic build disabled)

4 delete server

5 delete Servers folder

6 restart Eclipse

7 create new server, add project and start 🙂

takes some time but worked like charm. My problem was a irritating Listener start problem, but this seems to be something similar: a property at tomcat. Btw: nowadays I am also a big Glassfish fan.
