I have been running MyEclipse on windows for a few years now and in Package Explorer view I could always see files and packages marked with warning or error icons. However, I just installed MyEclipse on my Linux box and even though I can see warnings and errors within the actual file, Package Explorer is not reflecting it in its list view. How can I turn it on? Thanks, Oleg

Hi Oleg,
Here are a few things I would like you to try:-
1) Create a new workspace using File > Switch Workspace, to something like C:\tempworkspace
2) Create a new Java project, put an error in the Java file… do you see the annotation in the package explorer?

If NOT, then it may be an installation problem. If you do, then you should switch back to his old workspace, then restart using -clean, if that doesn’t help it may be a configuration issue.

I did what you suggested and the new project in the new workspace has no problems with highlights. However, when I import my old project into this workspace, same issue. Also, the errors in Java classes are not shows, but errors in JSP files are ??

I did -clean start, no effect. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Oleg

It’s possible that you have hit the max limit of errors reported. It’s also possible that there could be a build path problem, Eclipse will actually stop trying to build the project and not report any errors against the source files, but the JSP Validator will still run on the JSP files.

So can you check your Problem view for build-path errors or too many errors.

Yes, you are correct. I checked the build path and it was calling missing libraries, after pointing to the new location, project was re-built and error highlighting is working now. Thank you for the help, Oleg
