Error in IDE output window: 

| was unexpected at this time.

Please note the "|" pipe delimiter which indicates that there might be a space in path type of problem.

I can start the server in the bin directory using the startup.bat file.

Installed tomcat from 
apache-tomcat-7.0.56.zip

IDE server registration at:

D:\apps\apache-tomcat-7.0.56


I cannot see any issues in the IDE log.

The frustrating part is that this message seems to be the only trace of the problem, and it really does not give any indication of what the problem is.

The server log as printed int he IDE output window:
