Latest version 5.0.0 cannot work with eclipse 2019-12 (4.14.0)

[vincentcn]

I saw #45. Not sure whether this plugin is still been maintained. @froque @derkoe

I tried the latest version of this plugin(5.0.0) with Eclipse 2019-12 (4.14.0) and the jetty server cannot start successfully with following error:

Versions:

Eclipse version: 2019-12 (4.14.0)  (Eclipse 2019-09 cannot work either )
Eclipse Build id: 20191212-1212
Eclipse Jetty Integration version: 5.0.0
Jetty version: 9.4.11.v20180605

Downgrade it to version 4.0.0 can be a workaround.
But version 5.0.0 is the only installation option in both Eclipse Marketplace and http://eclipse-jetty.github.io/update/. I have to uninstall version 5.0.0 and manually copy version 4.0.0 artifacts from other laptop to unblock it.

Just tried this with a clean install of the current version 5.0.0 in Eclipse 2019-12 and it works as expected.

Created a Maven Project with File -> New -> Maven and then selecting the maven-archetype-webapp.

Then create a Eclipse Jetty launch configuration with all defaults for the project and the app launches as expected.

Just tried it with an external Jetty 9.4.x and I get your error. When checking "Enable JNDI support" on the "Options" tab the server starts without any problems.

Seems like #47 does not work - fixes welcome. Oh and maintainers also welcome - best would be a regular user.

Hi, just wanted to report that I experienced the same issue. As a workaround I downloaded the 4.0.0 (https://github.com/eclipse-jetty/eclipse-jetty-plugin/releases/tag/4.0.0) and installed it manually in Eclipse.
