    I am evaluating MyEclipse. I am actually looking for a JSP editor. But for 80% of my jsp files i get this error: ‘unable to create part:’.

    I am using Eclipse 3.0.1 (did not find any ‘gef’ in the plugin diretory either).

    My question is: can MyEclipse handle all jsp files? If yes, how to configure?

    Jaap,
    The ‘cannot create part’ problem is *extremely* common with corrupt or unclean installs of MyEclipse and other plugins. You have two choices:
    1) Open up the Eclipse log file (workspace dir\.metadata\.log) and try and narrow down exactly what the problem is from the exceptions
    2) DO a clean install to a new location of Eclipse 3.0.1 and MyEclipse 3.8.3, being sure to use the -clean command line argument when launching Eclipse and pointing it at your existing workspace, otherwise you could run into serious plugin cache polution.
    OPTIONAL 3) Try and shut down Eclipse and add the -clean command line argument then restart, this might be enough to clean out the problems you are having.

    And yes MyEclipse can handle all valid JSP files.

    Hello Riyad,

    I have tried all three options – but i am affraid my conclusion is that MyEclipse cannot handle all JSP’s

    Jaap,

    Typically, this is caused by an installation issue as Riyad mentioned. Are you sure you installed the full Eclipse SDK, and not just the platform? Can you verify that the installation is correct as described in our quickstart called “Installing / Uninstalling MyEclipse” located in our documentation section here: http://www.myeclipseide.com/ContentExpress-display-ceid-67.html

    Can you check you log file at <workspace>/.metainf/.log and see if there are any entries in it? If there are, please delete the log file, restart Eclipse, and try to open one problematic JSP. It should generate a log entry. Can you post the entire log here?

    Finally, if these actions don’t point to the issue, can you mail an example file that you’re having trouble with to us at support@genuitec.com? If you do, please include the URL of this thread in the email so that we can match the two up and respond here after we test it internally.
