"SetPropertiesRule" warning message when starting Tomcat from Eclipse

java eclipse tomcat eclipse-3.4

When I start Tomcat (6.0.18) from Eclipse (3.4), I receive this message (first in the log):

WARNING: [SetPropertiesRule]{Server/Service/Engine/Host/Context} Setting property 'source' to 'org.eclipse.jst.jee.server: (project name)' did not find a matching property.

Seems this message does not have any severe impact, however, does anyone know how to get rid of it?

The solution to this problem is very simple. Double click on your tomcat server. It will open the server configuration. Under server options check ‘Publish module contents to separate XML files’ checkbox. Restart your server. This time your page will come without any issues.
