I had Eclipse 2.1.1 and MyEclipse 2.6.2 installed on windows XP running with Tomcat 4.1.24 and SDK1.3.1_09. All went well untill I installed MyEclipse 2.7RC2 over 2.6.2. I then did an upgrade for for Eclipse on the upgrade perspective to 2.1.2.
That was the end for me. Ever since, when I try to save/compile a class the system just hangs.
I then deleted Eclispe and uninstalled MyEclipse. Re-installed Eclipse 2.1.2 and MyEclipse 2.7RC2. But to no avail, the system hanged when I tried to create a new EAR project. Is there a known bug with this combination or maybe some advice on how to do the install differently?
I have another licensed/XP machine running Eclipse 2.1.1 with MyEclipse 2.6.2 and Tomcat 4.1.24 and SDK1.3.1_09. On this machine I cannot get any debugging to work. Any help there?
I am in desperate need of help!

Kobus,
First, let me say that I’m sorry you’re experiencing this problem but we’ll do our best to determine what the issue is and get it resolved.

This is probably what caused the first issue.

That was the right thing to do. However, this combination should’ve worked fine. Can you check the Eclipse log file at <workbench-dir>/.metadata/.log and see if any exceptions were logged? This is most likely an environmental configuration problem, but we’ll need more information to determine what it is. Also, can you please answer all the questions we ask in the ‘Posting Guidelines’ thread at the top of this forum? That will allow us to figure out what’s going on faster.

By ‘any’ debugging, I assume you mean Java or JSP? Actually, for full debugging in Eclipse to work well you really need to launch your server with JDK 1.4.1 (1.4.2 has some bugs) because it has the new debugger architecture that Eclipse takes advantage of. Problems have been found with the older 1.3.1 releases and your experience sounds just like that. Additionally, for JSP source-level debugging, you’ll need to run on Tomcat 5 rather than 4 since only the latest release support JSR-045 which makes JSP debugging possible.

Unfortunately I cannot supply the log details. I started all over. BTW, I am following your Upgrade Instructions.
Uninstalled MyEclipse. Deleted the Eclipse folder. Extracted Eclipse. Started Eclipse to make sure it does not see MyEclipse. Stopped Eclipse. Installed MyEclipse 2.7RC2. Started MyEclipse and now it is asking me to complete Pending Configuration Changes as per your guidelines.

Kobus, no worries. 2.6.200 == 2.7RC2. I’ve posted the explination a couple times, and its a lot to type out, so just take my word for it 🙂
Kobus,
It sounds like once you approved the pending changes on the restart of Eclipse you should’ve been up and running. Is everything OK now?
