Hi,

I have myeclipse version 4.1.1 (eclipse DSK 3.1.1), and recently I have problems using the JavaScript editor.
I used to work with it in the past, but now I can’t use it and I don’t know what has changed.
When trying to open any js file (double click on the file) I get an error: “An error has occurred. see error log for more details”.
When I’m using the “Open With” operation, I am able to open the file with text editor, but when I select JavaScript editor nothing happens (not even an error).

Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks a lot,
Efrat

Efrat,
Does the editor say “MyEclipse JavaScript Editor” or just “JavaScript Editor”? Also please paste the result from MyEclipse > About > Configuration Summary for me (From the MyEclipse menu)

Efrat,
Everything looks ok. Try restart using -clean command line argument to see if that helps. If that doesn’t work, try a clean workspace (File > Switch Workspace > C:\tempworkspace, hit OK). Then create a new web project wiht a JS file, does it open?

[efratb]

Hi,
The -clean didn’t help, and I couldn’t open a JS file from a new workspace either…
Is there a lot file that I can look at?

Thanks,
Efrat

I am facing the same problems, please let me know the solution.

[Riyad Kalla]

Ranimathur,
Please provide me the same information I asked for in my second post. I also followed with with Efrat privately to see if my suggestions work, if they do, I will follow up with you as well.

[ranimathur]

Same result as Efrat, -clean didn’t help, and couldn’t open a JS file from a new workspace either.

Any errors in the error log? <workspace_dir>\.metadata\.log
