cannot add server(tomcat) to eclipse

Question

Environment : Windows + Eclipse Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2) + Tomcat 8 + JDK 8

When I try to add a new server to Eclipse with File -> New -> Other -> Server

I choice the "Tomcat v8.0 Server" in "New Server" dialog, and I have added "Server Runtime Environments". but there is a error message

" The currently selected server type does not support remote hosts".

what can I do with this error?

thanks everybody!

I solved by changing server runtime environments in eclipse,
Preferences => Server => Runtime Environments

then select your tomcat type. You can remove the server and add new server runtime Environment or edit existing one by giving correct tomcat installation path. Then it won't give

"The currently selected server type does not support remote hosts" error.

You just need to change the server name to localhost.
