This morning, MyEclipse 2024 displayed a message indicating the presence of an update. After performing the update, MyEclipse no longer starts. I am attaching the error log and configuration file.

Best regards,
Paolo Clerici

Paolo,

Sorry to see you run into this. I had a look at the log files you attached and there’s nothing there that will help us resolve this, or figure out exactly what has gone wrong; it does look like a bad/incomplete update.

You could try to see if adding a clean argument fixes the problem. Edit your myeclipse.ini file and add -clean on line #1. Then save the file and start MyEclipse.

If this does not work, the most expedient solution would be to fix the install with the offline installer. Please download the 2025 installer from here: https://www.genuitec.com/products/myeclipse/download/ and run it. You can choose to “repair” your install, which should do the trick, or you can uninstall and install a fresh instance of the IDE.

Please let us know how this works, apologies again for the inconvenience caused.

Thank you for your support. Unfortunately, the -clean parameter did not resolve the problem. The repair with the 2025 version worked, but some add-ons are not functioning. I uninstalled and reinstalled the 2024 version, which I will not update for now.

Best regards,
Paolo Clerici

Paolo,

Thank you for the update, appreciate you writing back. Can you share which addons are not working and the nature of the failure? This is important for us so we can figure out if there really are incompatibilities we need to fix in subsequent MyEclipse updates or if the issue lies elsewhere.

Hi Brian,
The component that was no longer working correctly was Subclipse version 4.3.4.
The issue was that the “SVN Repository Exploring” view was no longer usable.
I uninstalled MyEclipse, installed MyEclipse 2024.1.2, and then installed Subclipse 4.3.4.
I then upgraded to MyEclipse 2025.1.0 using the offline installation, and everything seems to be working correctly, including Subclipse.
The only strange thing I’ve noticed is that the title bar displays “2024 – MyEclipse” instead of “2025 – MyEclipse,” and in the “Check for Updates…” function under “Lock to version,” the 2025 version is not listed, the latest available is “CI 2024.1.2.”
It seems the initial issue was caused by the online update, whereas the offline installation did not result in any apparent malfunctions.

Best regards,
Paolo Clerici

Paolo,

Thanks for this update. I’m glad you were able to get it to work with that circuitous route. We’ll do some more testing with Subclipse at our end, I’m guessing the issue your an into had something to do with a somewhat corrupt install after the initial failed update experience.

Coming to your questions:
1) At least on Windows, the title bar by default will display the workspace name, or workspace folder name – could 2024 be your workspace name?
2) The version 2025.1.0 is intentionally left off the from the update list. You can lock only to earlier versions, but if you unlock / check for updates, you’d be able to get back to the 2025.1.0 release. The version can also be confirmed at Help > About MyEclipse – look for the Version field.

Thanks!

Hi Brian,
yes 2024 is workspace name. I’m sorry but I didn’t know that, I thought it was program version.

Thanks,
Paolo
