I’ve just completed the upgrade to MyEclipse 2025.1. Firstly MyEclipse failed to restart after the upgrade so I had to using the static installer and use the repair option as per previous topic. I’ve got back to my workspace and am trying to open a new Terminal+ window to run Angular CLI commands, but all I see is an empty window with no command line and no apparent way to enter commands.
Any ideas on what I might need to do to reactivate it, or how to find out why it’s not working?
Thanks

An update to this issue. It seems like something was configuring or installing in background when I first tried. I can now access Terminal+ BUT…
Whatever size the terminal+ window, there seems to be an inner window half the parents height and width. It can’t be scrolled either vertically or horizontally. So I need to maximise it to be able to type in commands as if any text in the inner window exceeds the bounds of the parent it is not accessible. So I’ll have to in effect run an Angular command then close the window and reopen to run the next command.
I’m running on Windows 11 if that has any impact.

Jeremy,

First, sorry you ran into an update issue – it’s not a general problem but we have been seeing more reports of it recently and are actively investigating the issue. Did you have any additional plugins installed prior to the update? Additionally, do you happen to have any log files from the failed start post update?

The background task was possibly a download of a newer version of Node and/or npm.

I can’t say we’ve ever seen this, “window in window” problem you’re experiencing (even on Windows 11). If you just updated, can you confirm that the previous version of MyEclipse that you updated from did not exhibit this problem? Which version of MyEclipse were you using prior to this?
Could you also share exactly what Windows 11 version you’re on? You can find this from the system update history – look at the list of updates in the “Feature Updates” section like 23H2 or 24H2.

Can you try the following to see if they resolve the issue?
a) Resizing the view
b) Use Window > New Window and open the terminal in the new window
c) Try a new workspace
d) Beside the Terminal+ view, there is also a Terminal view. You can find this view at Window > Show View > Terminal > Terminal. If you choose to open a Git Bash terminal from this view’s menu, does that work without this UI problem?

Thanks!
