    I’m in the habit of creating a new workspace for each project. Currently I have at least half a dozen workspace / projects that I actively use. I’ve noticed lately that when I create a new workspace, MyEclipse gets into a “enter subscription code” loop. When I Look into the workspaces’s .log file, I see

    SUBSCRIPTION KEY PROBLEM: Too many users are using this subscription key.MyEclipse will now disable most featues. Either fewer instances of the workbench need to be run or additional subscription keys need to be purchased through the upgrade link.The list of IPs using this key have been written to the log and are also listed here for your convenience: 10.4.201.91, 10.4.201.91

    What does this mean exactly?

    What operating system and version are you running? WinXP SP2
    What Eclipse version and build id are you using? (Help > About Eclipse Platform) 3.0.1 / 200409161125
    Was Eclipse freshly installed for MyEclipse? Yes
    If not, was it upgraded to its current version using the update manager?
    Are any other external plugins installed? XmlBuddy
    How many plugins in the <eclipse>/plugins directory are like org.eclipse.pde.* 8
    What MyEclipse version are you using? (Help > About Eclipse Platform > Features) 3.8.3
    What JDK version are you using to run Eclipse? (java -version) 1.4.2
    What JDK version are you using to launch your application server? 1.4.2
    What steps did you take that resulted in the issue?
    What application server are you using? Tomcat 4

    For that version of MyEclipse, your subscription code is stored in your workspace, so you need to enter it into every workspace you create.

    For 4.0 M3 and later the subscription information is stored in a global location, so you only need to enter it once.

    I have seen that message also.

    It Shows Up when we have two or more MyEclipse Instances running concurrently.
    The first instance runs fine, but the second Instance shows that message.
    [and the license was (before) successfully entered in both workspaces]

    If we close both instances and open the second one; it shows no problem.

    In my case; I have old-proyects and new-proyects; the old-ones are in Eclipse 3.0.2 with MyEclipse 3.8.4, the new-ones are with Eclipse 3.1 with MyEclipse 40m3.
    If I open both workspaces at the same time, one of them shows the message.

    Hope it Helps.
    Saludos

    Actually, in my case, it seems it wasn’t because I was running multiple instances, but rather I was deleting and recreating the same workspace repeatedly. Once I rebooted Windows and repeatedly deleted and recreated the project instead, I was OK.

    Subsequently I did try to run two instances concurrently, and I did get the subscription key problem. But oddly enough, if I run two instances concurrently and one of them is coded with an expired subscription key, that works fine. Seems like a good idea to store the subscription key globally though.

    Meanwhile, does anybody know where Eclipse stores the data that it uses to populate the dropdown listbox in the File -> Switch Workspace dialog? I want to edit that list manually to remove some old entries.
