Server communications error when trying to edit a content query

Question

Hi.
I get an error when I try to edit a content query for a placeholder in Workshop. I open a placeholder (in data->placeholders) and select "content search" in the content query box. The "Content Search" box pops up but I get an error requester ("Server Communications Error") saying "Content properties cannot be retrieved from the server".
I've ensured that the server is running and I've checked the server settings, but I haven't been able to find anything that would explain this error.
Any suggestions?

From Workshop, in the Application tab, right-click on
wps-toolSupport.war under Modules, and select Set Context Path. Enter
${appname}Tool, ${appname} is the name of you application. Workshop
should use that context-root from then on, and then the placeholder
editor should be able to find the WebService it needs.

I tried this, but it didn't work either. Upon redeployment it
actually removed the edited <module> section and replaced it with the
original:
<module> <web> <web-uri>wps-toolSupport.war</web-uri>
<context-root>wps-toolSupport</context-root> </web> </module>
