I am getting ready to purchase MyEclipse but want to see if it runs with my current workdesk. It ran the first time but then every time after that I get an error and it tells me to look at the log file. One thing that may be helpful is that I do have another version of eclipse running in a different directory which works OK. The directory for MyEclispe is c:\_Backup\eclipse. The directory for the older eclipse (3.0.0) is c:\_DevApps\eclipse.

Here is the log file:

Thank you in advance

I just found that I can run it with the -clean switch. Is there a way around this or will I always have to do it?

[Scott Anderson]

You should only have to do it one time. -clean just tells Eclipse to clean up its plugin cache and rebuild it. It should be fine after it’s run once.

[jlumnas]

I still get the error w/o the -clean option

[Scott Anderson]

Jeff,

This really looks like a bad installation as Eclipse is having trouble spinning up the OSGI runtime. It’s a very low-level error. I’d suggest reinstalling Eclipse and making sure you can open it multiple times without error, then installing MyEclipse on top of it. This install just looks bad, from the error message.
