I am getting this error when trying to customize any Eclipse perspective (Window/Perspective/Customize Perspective…):

beleta1,

Sorry that you are seeing this issue. I see some of the reported errors (not the NullPointerException) at my end but the Customize Perspective dialog opens fine and I could make changes to it.

Are you seeing this problem with any particular perspective? I checked with Angular, JavaEE,Java, Java Debug and Team Synchronizing perspectives.

If possible, delete the contents of the .log file which is located at workspace dir/.metadata/.log, restart the IDE, replicate the problem with the customize perspective and send us the complete log file (save it as .txt and attach it) along with the perspective details which is currently active in the IDE.

Apologies for inconvenience caused. Thank you for reporting it.

I am not sure that Codemix is the culprit because I removed the extension points but the error still shows.

beleta,

The stacktrace for NPE points to DBeaver related code. If you have installed any third party plugin related to DBeaver, you can recheck.
Regarding the ‘invalid menu extension’ error from CodeMix, I have filed a bug report for the dev team to look into it.
