Hi,
I got this solution from SAP and it worked.
This is a known problem that appers due to an implementation bug,
while trying to read the proxy information. The studio expects non-
empty value for key com.tssap.config/proxy, located in
[YourDevStudioInstallationPath]\eclipse\plugins\com.sap.java.ide\pl
ugin_customization.ini file. During the installation no value is
assigned to this key (as you mentioned - no proxy in your case). The
problem will be fixed for SP14, however there is a workaround:
1. Change the value for key com.tssap.config/proxy in
plugin_customization.ini to something like this - proxy:80.
2. After this change the DevStudio should start and you'll be able to
configure your proxy settings from Menu Window->Preferences-
>Workbench->Proxy Settings. (In your case - disable the proxy
server)
