    Install 4.1 GA. The “New and Noteworthy” doc states, “Web 2.0 Workbench Perspective”
    The new MyEclipse Web 2.0 perspective has been added in 4.1, so it is accessible along with the other MyEclipse perspective shortcuts.

    The perspective is nowhere to be found. How do I get the Web 2.0 Workbench activated?

    There are a few ways to access the Web 2.0 perspective.

    1. File->New->Other->MyEclipse->Web->MyEclipse Web 2.0 browser
    2. Debug a JavaScript application: select an HTML file->right click->Debu As->JavaScript Application

    You should also be able to access it through Window->Open Perspective->Other->MyEclipse Web 2.0 however I discourage this because it is much harder to debug JavaScript in one window.

    You didn’t give us any information about your platform but I’d guess that you’re on Linux or Mac. For the 4.1 release the Web 2.0 tools are Windows-only but we plan to add Linux and then Mac support in the 4.1.1 release. Sorry for the confusion.

    If you’re on Windows, can you please post all the information we request in the [URL=http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-393.html]Posting Guidelines[/URL] thread at the top of this forum? That will give us some context so that we can determine what the issue is.

    I have the exact same problem, and I have done a fresh install of both eclipse and MyEclipse on Windows XP.
    The project I am opening is one form MyEclipse 4.02
    I tried accessing the Web 2.0 browser from all the recommended places (including the ones you have mentioned in the above post), but the only one that launches is the normal ‘Web Browser’.
    The browser is not even listed anywhere in the Persepctives.
    I spent ages on it and caved in eventually.
    Bit miffed as I am looking into employing some Ajax and new front end widgets 🙁

    I should add, that other things such as JSF Flow, Struts assist, Hibernate assist and Image editor all appear installed.
    I get the gut feeling there is another pre-requisite I am missing here somewhere, that isnt listed in the instructions / or I have missed?

    Found the problem, a suspect link on your website.
    if you click on the actual red colored image with 4.1.1, it takes you to a page which lists all the options to download 4.1.1, but in fact downloads the previous M3 release.
    However if you click the hotlink ‘Latest Release’ that are underneath the red image, it takes you to the correct download pages.
    Freaky.

    The download link appears to be fixed now. Thanks for the note.

    I saw your post where you stated that you are delivering 4.1.1 with JS debugging etc. options on linux. I have 4.1.1 GA (20060228-4.1.1-GA), yet I do not see these features. This is annoying, as I was purchasing Myeclipse particularly for these features, and I do need them for my current project. Is there at least a beta?

    Tnx,

    M

    In 5.0M1, the JavaScript Debugger will be working on linux. I’m testing a development build of it as we speak. However, you will need to pay close to attention to the special release notes/documentation instructions that go along with the JS Debugger on linux as it may have some external configuration requirements on your distribution. We will have more info at release time.

    Is there a way to beta test that version?
