Running ME 8.5 (all in one) on Win 2000 (sp4)

Noticed that IvyDE is not showing (was there in 7.5) and using same workspace so thought maybe something needs updating so –

From the Config Center trying to do an update for “Pulse services and extensions” but keep getting the following error. Behind a proxy but authentication details must be entered correct to get this far!

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
session context was:(profile=com.poweredbypulse.profile-0-rb-578452-1277106530625, phase=com.genuitec.pulse2.client.common.download.PulseCollect, operand=, action=).

Is this why IvyDE plugin is not showing? any ideas?

thanks in advance

Harry,

Have you added IvyPlugin to your ME 8.5 profile? Also ensure that the IvyPlugin is compatible to Eclipse 3.5.2
How did you add IvyPlugin to ME 7.5? Can you share any weblink with download or install instructions for IvyPlugin?
In case you are behind proxy. Please setup your proxy information here – open MyEclipse IDE, from menu options click on Window > Preference > General > Network Connections.

Let me know how this works for you.

noticed IvyDE’s “Resolve all” button was missing so went in to Config Center | Software | Add Site – IvyDE was already in “Recent Sites” list so selected and ok’ed it.

IvyDE now appears under “Personal SItes” but although shown in “My Software”, the version is blank. Does this mean it’s not installed? if so, how do in install that plugin? all I can find is to “Refresh Site”

I know I need to learn Config Center properly but haven’t time at the moment and was hoping this was going to be a very quick 7.5->8.5 upgrade – apologies if I’m missing something obvious!

[support-joy]

Harry,

Can you confirm if you have done the below mentioned –
1. From MyEclipse Configuration Center, go to Software tab. As per above, IvyIDE plugin is listed under Recent Sites.
2. Right click on the IvyPlugin and click on [add to profile]
3. This will add 1 managed change under *Pending Changes*
4. Click on [Apply 1 change] button
5. This will open a wizard which will guide you through the rest of the steps to install the said plugin
6. When prompted, please choose to restart MyEclipse IDE.

Let me know how this works for you.

Best.

did that and at first looked good (“resolve all” icon appears in toolbar) but then noticed me server support seems to have vanished i.e. Window | Prefs | myeclipse | servers – blank except for “Integrated sandbox”

Removed plugin using Config Center and still servers missing – does this mean the plugin is incompatible with eclipse 3.5.2 then? if so, looks like I’m stuck on 7.5 until plugin updated or is there anything else you can think of for me to try?

Seems to me that alot of devs use this ivy plugin and will face the same problems I have which basically renders me 8.5 useless!

[harryajh]

Whats even more worrying is going back to 7.5 and original workspace I can’t the servers in there either – trying to reset me java enterprise perspective gives error –

Unable to restore perspective: MyEclipse Database Explorer.
Could not create view: com.genuitec.eclipse.ast.deploy.core.serverview
Could not create view: com.genuitec.eclipse.ast.deploy.core.serverview
Could not find view: com.genuitec.eclipse.ast.deploy.core.serverview

[harryajh]

finally gave up, after nearly a whole day messing around I’m back to square one having to re-install 7.5 and be content that I can never upgrade – bitterly disappointed to say the least!

[harryajh]

still trying, un-installed and reinstalled 8.5 in to completely new folder totally separate from 7.5

Now, before even trying to add ivy site, if I click on “Eclipse 3.5 (Galllio) Discovery”, I get java.lang.NullPointerException dialog box which gives in my .log file –

Any ideas?

Harry,

I would suggest you a clean re-install. Please follow below mentioned steps –
1. Run the uninstaller.
2. Make sure the MyEclipse Install Directory has been completely removed
2.1. Pulse Install Directory, on XP it’s under C:\Program Files in \Pulse or \Genuitec, and on Vista it’s under <USER.HOME>\AppData\Local and then under \Pulse or \Genuitec again
3. Then make sure the pulse2.locator file under <USER.HOME> is erased as well
4. Next install pulse from http://www.poweredbypulse.com
5. Select “Eclipse- Galileo” realm from the top left hand corner dropdown
6. Expand and click on Ready to use Profiles > Popular
7. On the right hand pane, right click on MyEclipse 8.5 and click on [install and run]

This will open a wizard which will guide you through the rest of the steps.

Let me know how this works for you.

[harryajh]

looks like it’s finally working,

un-installed 8.5 and 7.5 and removed pulse2.locator file, also checked dirs and registry to make sure all trace of Genuitec removed

can’t install pulse from link given as prevented by company firewall so installed 8.5 from all-in-one package but still getting NPE and “Problems occurred when invoking code from plug-in: “org.eclipse.jface”.” error

Fiddled around (and too be honest not really sure what I did) but it appears to be working now

thanks for your help!
