给出如下推测：错误提示发生在myeclipse启动之后，tomcat启动之前，所以，可以确定问题发生在myeclipse初始化工作空间的时候。

查资料后发现问题原因如下：
我们使用myeclipse自动部署web项目时会设置服务器的位置，而部署的相关配置会存储在myeclipse工作目录下的“.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime.settings\com.genuitec.eclip”，因此当我们更换了服务器的位置时，在进行部署的时候就会报错，这是我们的解决办法。

第一种方式：
1、关闭myeclipse
2、进入工作空间“.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime.settings”，比如我本机工作空间“D:\java\Workspaces\MyEclipse.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime.settings”，删除 com.genuitec.eclipse.ast.deploy.core.prefs文件，然后打开myeclipse重新部署即可。

第二种方式：
把web工程建在另外的工作空间中。
