Eclipse and solaris

Again a new subject, but I have searched a lot before posting this one... Hope there is a solution.
I am trying to use eclipse 3.3.2 on solaris 10 for x86 architecture. And if I have well understood, it's probably the worst configuration.
So, firstly, I tried to compile it by reading the eclipse instruction. But it's an error, their documentation is not enough recent. Actually, the build script doesn't need a -java5home argument, and java 1.5 is needed for the compilation. And at last, it is needed to download the eclipse java compiler for the compilation can start. Unhappily even after that, I have errors at compilation (I didn't save the trace, but it is a java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError exception).
So I searched on the net and I found the following website: http://www.blastwave.org/pkg-get.php
Where the good eclipse version is available even for x86 (but I think they do their packages for solaris 8).
I installed it, no problem during installation steps, but at launch, I have the same kind of error than previously (but previously it was during the compilation):

I experienced the same error and successfully fixed it by installing Java 1.6 following these instructions: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jdk/install-solaris.html

    step help on eclipse on solaris 10 plz help me guys

    I'm not sure what you need help with.
    If it is installing here are some instructions:
    Goto: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index.php
    And download either of the Solaris 8 builds (I know the motif
    one works on Solaris 10, but you might like the look of gtk better).
    unzip eclipse-SDK-3.1.1-solaris-*.zip
    Put the now unziped eclipse directory where you want it. I'll assume it is in your home directory.
    I suggest making this script:
    #!/bin/sh
    /home/dadu420/eclipse/eclipse -vmargs -Dorg.eclipse.core.runtime.ignoreLockFile $*
    (where /home/dadu420 is your home directory)
    and put it in your path, and call it eclipse.
    Then run eclipse.
    I hope it helps!

  • Eclipse for Solaris 8

    Hi,
    I want to download eclipse for solaris 8(jss-plumb) from where can I download it. I have downloaded one from the following site http://archive.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.2-200606291905/index.php. But, when I try to run it, it gives me following error "ld.so.1: eclipse: fatal: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: open failed: No such file or directory Killed". I have also referred the following thread http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5190972&tstart=2025 but there is no answer for it.

    Well, since Solaris 8 is rather ancient by now i suppose that it wasn't shipped with the required gtk-library.
    My guess is that you have to grab gtk 2.0 from www.sunfreeware.com, install it and add /usr/local/lib to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, if the package installs under /usr/local/
    (aka, in bash: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH).

  • Problem launching a jsp page with eclipse and tomcat

    Hi,
    I have just started using eclipse and tomcat for creating dynamic web pages. I tried to launch a jsp page after starting the tomcat server with the URL: http://locahost:8080/HelloWorld/, an error page was displayed as below:
    HTTP Status 404 -/
    type Status report

    I didn't get any error at the console and when i just typed http://localhost, a pop up menu saying that the connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost.
    I'm not sure what is the problem here. Could it be the permssion to the localhost is not granted by the system as the eclipse IDE is running using linux?
    Hope someone can help.

  • Crystal Reports for Eclipse and CR2008

    SQL-Server 2005
    CR 2008, Ver.12.0.0.683
    Crystal Reports for Eclipse Plug-in Details:
    all Plug-in-files from Business Objects have the Versions 1.0.4.v1094 or 11.8.0.v20060727 except "CR for Eclipse Dev.Guide": Ver. 1.0.0.v1094
    I created a report with CR 2008 and load this report with eclipse. A preview in CR and eclipse is running perfect.
    When I bind this report to a jsp I get the error "Es wurde keine Rowsetspalte für das SQL-Ausdrucksfeld "strRefNo" gefunden", in english
    "no rowset-column for sql-statement "strRefNo""
    General this kind of SQL-statement is not working. This statement is a function which needs first a value from the database.
    When this value is fixed in the statement, the report is running in the jsp otherwise I get the error.
    When I delete this statement in eclispe, save this report, redo my delete and save the report again, the report is running with jsp!
    May be, there is a version conflict between CR and eclipse.
    I have to create the reports in CR2008 but I can not save the report in CR2008 to an older version.
    Is there a newer version for eclipse, which works with CR2008? I could not find any other version.
    Do you have other ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi Bryan,
    thank you for your good informations.
    I have downloaded the complete new eclipse and I don't get this error anymore.
    But in the next step, I tried a report with subreports. This is complete not working in Eclipse. When I load this report to Eclipse Ican see and click into the subreports. Each subreport is working in Preview, but the whole reports does not work (black screen), I get the error

  • Vista and Solaris 10, are they compatible?

    I have attempted to follow dual boot guides found everywhere, but none tailor specifically to (or eve mention) Vista. This is a problem, because Vista does not use the same method of boot as previous versions of NT.
    So far, in my many failed attempts at creating a Vista dual boot, I have experienced this:
    When I install Solaris 10 on any partition (Solaris installs correctly and works great), and then attempt to install Windows Vista, Vista says all of my partitions do not meet its requirements for installation (that the drive is NTFS and at least 12 GB is all it tells me). Even after formatting, deleting, recreating, and reformatting a drive, the drive is still unusable. Only after deleting ALL drives, including Solaris 10, and recreating and brand new first partition does Vista allow me to install. If I create a partition that Vista allows me to use, and also a partition to use with Solaris, and THEN install Solaris, the partition that Vista liked can no longer be used!
    When I install Windows Vista first (and it works fine) (which is what I tried first and reasoned is what I should be doing), and then install Solaris 10 on a partition (it installs correctlt and works great), I load up my computer and go into the GRUB bootloader. I can select Windows. However, when attempting to load windows, I get an error (in the Vista font by the way) that says my operating system cannot be loaded. When I load my Vista install disc, it cannot find any installations of windows, and it cannot repair the master boot record, saying something like the filesystem is corrupt. However, just as an experiment, I loaded Vista onto the former Solaris drive, and looked at my first partition. Every file was there, intact.
    I have attempted this with Windows Home Premium 32 bit, Windows Business 32 bit, and Vista Ultimate x64. I don't want to believe that it's impossible to load Vista and Solaris simultaneously, I've seen as much stating its impossibility as I've seen documents telling me how to do it (<- cold irony).
    As long as I can get AN INSTALLATION of Solaris 10 on my machine at the same time I have Vista able to boot, I'm fine, but I seem to have lost on all fronts.

    In Solaris Express, this is not an issue, according to this weblog:
    http://blogs.sun.com/moinakg/entry/solaris_vista_dual_boot_conclusion
    For versions of Solaris Express prior to buid 70, this method was described for creating a dual-boot with the oh-too-picky Windows Vista:
    http://linux.wordpress.com/2007/02/17/vista-and-solaris-express-dual-boot/
    I am going to assume that setting up a dual-boot with Solaris 10 is similar to, if not the same as, Solaris Express, since the only steps specific to Solaris are the files I copy from Solaris.
    I hope this helps anyone else with a problem similar to mine.

    Install Windows first, then Solaris {not the other way round}. When Solaris installer detects Windows installation and prompts you whether to preserve Windows partition, make sure to select 'preserve' option. I believe Solaris installer creates appropriate GRUB entries for Windows and Solaris. Even if it doesn't, you can always edit the GRUB menu after the installation is complete.
    Check the following web site if you need detailed instructions:

  • How do I install dual-boot Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 on one hard disk ?

    I tried to install Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 on same disk using CDs, but
    the second installation overwrote the first Solaris which was installed
    previoudly on the half-disk size partition of same disk.
    How do I install two Solarises on one hard disk ?
    Thanks
    Yakov

    There are no tricks to get Solaris to dual boot on the same drive. Just allocate and pick the free slices not used by the first Solaris install when you put in the second install. Technically speaking there is nothing preventing you from running seven separately bootable Solaris instances on the same drive (one of 8 available slices is overlap -- slice 2) provided you use a swap file on a root partition instead of reserving a whole slice for swap.

  • Dual boot windows 7 and solaris 11

    Hi Friends,
    Could some one please explain the steps to install dual boot windows 7 and solaris 11?
    Thanks
    Raja

    Install Windows leaving a partition for Solaris.  Install Solaris into the empty partition.  Reboot.  Use a partition manager if you need to shrink your current Windows Partition.  GParted works great and is free.

  • Dual Boot Windows 7 and solaris 10

    Can some body guide me how to dual boot windows 7 and solaris 10?
    Thanks

    First partition your harddisk with at least 2 primary partitions, one for windows and the other for solaris if you only have one harddisk. It would be a good idea to create an additional small boot partition as the first partition as well if you intend on using an independent boot loader but it really depends on what your machine is capable of. For example, if you have multiple harddisk and your BIOS supports it, then you could just install each OS onto its own harddisk and use the BIOS function to disable/boot off specific harddisk. Otherwise, if you only have one harddisk and created multiple partitions, install windows7 first followed by solaris10, obviously installing into different partitions. If you have created a boot partition, then you can install the boot loader into that dedicated partition.

  • Dual Booting Windows and Solaris

    Hi
    how do i dual boot windows and solaris
    Do i install windows first and then solaris or do it the other way around..?
    how do i make sure that Windows and Solaris appear in my boot options..?
    Is their a guide on doing this...?
    Thanks
    Liam

    Hey I did a quick google search for you. So I havent tried this method myself but it sounds reasonable.
    The text below is from the following link:
    http://www.hccfl.edu/pollock/AUnix1/DualBoot.htm
    "Solaris boot loader
    Partition the drive to leave at least 2GB of space available for Solaris;
    more drive space is desirable.
    As with Linux, install Windows first then Solaris.
    Do not use the Installation CD but boot and install
    from Software CD 1.
    If you accept the default partitioning scheme which
    the installer provides you will soon run out of space in
    your / and /usr partitions since only enough space is
    allocated to install the system.
    All extra space is allocated to /export/home.
    A typical installation on a 4.5GB partition might look
    something like this:
    Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
    /dev/dsk/c0d0s0 900M 536M 310M 64% /
    /dev/dsk/c0d0s1 334M 109M 192M 36% /var
    swap 671M 8.0k 671M 1% /var/run
    swap 671M 8.0k 671M 1% /tmp
    /dev/dsk/c0d0s5 845M 222M 565M 29% /opt
    # (FAT32 partition):
    /dev/dsk/c0d0p0:1 5.0G 3.3G 1.6G 66% /c
    /dev/dsk/c0d0s7 1.1G 92M 954M 9% /export/home
    /dev/dsk/c0d0s4 752M 225M 474M 33% /usr/local
    The Solaris boot selector enables you to choose either
    Solaris or Windows with Solaris as the default.
    (I prefer grub or lilo!)
    To mount FAT under Solaris:
    # mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c0d0p0:c /dos (or �:1�?)
    And the vfstab file:
    /dev/dsk/c0d0p0:c - /dos pcfs - yes -
    To create a GRUB boot floppy, follow these steps:
    $ mkfs -t ext2 /dev/fd0
    $ mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/fd0
    $ mkdir /mnt/fd0/boot /mnt/fd0/boot/grub
    $ cp /boot/grub/stage[12] /boot/grub/grub.conf \
    > /mnt/fd0/boot/grub
    $ /sbin/grub --batch <
    Hope this helps!

    So is context.xml actually overwriting the settings found in server.xml?I think so. The way I understand it is the the context.xml file saves you from having to edit server.xml. It is preferred for each web app to do its own config, rather than lumping them all together in server.xml.
    And what would be the best way to create the war file? IAt its heart, a WAR is just a zip file with its contents laid out in according to the specification of a web application directory structure.
    So the simplest way to make a war file is to zip up your directory structure with a tool like winzip, and rename it to be myApp.war.
    Regarding ant, I would recommend you take a look through [url http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/index.html
    ]this tutorial. It explains the basics of website layout, configuration and deployment.
    On [url http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/source.html] this page  in particular, it includes a link to a basic ant file that you can use as a starting point.

  • Eclipse and Java EE 5

    Hi all,
    I'm going to develop an application based on Java EE 5.
    I'd like to use webservices, EJB 3.0, GlassFish, Portlets and everything should be than connected with JBI, bussiness logic will be modeled with BPEL.
    My question is which IDE would be better for me. I liked elipse for my JavaSE, Spring etc. development but I don't know the situation in JEE 5. Will be a problem to use these technologies with eclipse? Is eclipse (WTP?) ready for this project? With which plugins?
    Thanks
    P.S. I'm only deciding between eclipse and netbeans and I'm not interested in which IDE is little better but if eclipse is roughly on the same level with Java EE 5 and other technologies mentioned.

    What do you mean by "I r click the server"? Do you mean in the Servers
    view and choose Run or Debug?
    Normally, Tomcat comes ready to use on port 8080. You can change this by
    doing the following:
    1) Expand Server in the Project Explorer view.
    2) Exapnd Tomcat v6.0 Server at localhost-config
    3) Double-click server.xml
    4) Search for 8080
    5) Verify that you have:
    <Connector connectionTimeout="20000" port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
    redirectPort="8443" />
    This should mean that Tomcat is using 8080 not 80. If other, change to
    8080 and try again.
    (80 is usually what your browser is using.)
