Tomecat v7.0 Server, Eclipse, and Ubuntu. Server Name is blank when defining a new server

Problem: 
Tomecat v7.0 Server, Eclipse, and Ubuntu. When you Define a new Server and choose tomcat v7.9, the Server host name is populated however the server name is blank. It is expected to be something like "Tomecat v7.0 Server at localhost"

Solution:
  1. Close Eclipse
  2. In {workspace-directory}/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings. delete the following:
    • org.eclipse.wst.server.core.prefs
    • org.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.core.prefs
  3. Restart Eclipse
