| The Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat, or VTS for short, requires Java SE 6 or later to be installed. Java is available from | |

| Since you're going to use the p2 director you'll need to get it. The easiest way is to download Eclipse from <a class="ulink" href="http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/" target="_top">here</a>. | |
| It has built-in p2 director and other p2 applications. | |

Otherwise you may not see the director application. Here's how to do that:</p><p>Go to Eclipse's Preferences->Plug-in Development->Target Platform. Below is shown how the view looks like when a default target platform is set.</p><p> | |

| </p><p>If for some reason you don't have any target platform set or it's not the default one you must set the default target platform from the image above.</p><p>If the default target platform is missing then add a new one via the <span class="emphasis"><em>Add...</em></span> button and select the <span class="emphasis"><em>Default</em></span> radio button as shown below:</p><p> | |
