    Mandrake Linux 10.0
    Eclipse 3.0
    EnterpriseWorkbenchInstaller_030800.bin

    End of installation log shows this error:
    ==>
    Install Action: RPMSpecFile
    Status: ERROR
    Additional Notes: ERROR – There was a problem creating the RPM package. You may not be running as root or may not have installed RPM Builder correctly.
    ERROR – java.lang.NullPointerException
    ==>

    Eclipse seems to be working fine though.

    Peculiar. It might be a problem with Mandrakes “rpm’er”. If it starts giving you problems I’d suggest trying the manual installation option.

    How does the manual installation option work ?

    Its pretty straight forward, download the manual install, and unzip the zip file and follow the instructions that are included. Its basically a 2-step process but outlined in a lot of detail with lots of screenshots. You pretty much unzip the file somewhere and then start Eclipse and tell it where MyEclipse lives… but you need to uninstall previous installs of MyEclipse first following these instructions: http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-3271.html first.

    Please note that there are some growing pains and bugs we are finding with the new 3.8 release so you may consider waiting until we get a quick fix release out the door very soon now.
