Oracle Eclipse Plugin 1.3.0.200909171310 - Unable to start a 10.3.1.0 Serv

Question

Title says it all.... Lost 3 days finding what was the problem.
The version of Oracle Eclipse Plugin 1.3.0.200909171310
is completelly unable to a version 10.3.1.0 Server.
The server starts correctly on the command line.
In Eclipse the server instance and runtime are created correctly, but when you
try to start it from eclipse bang!
Unable to validate WebLogic domain.Please make sure the running WebLogic instance is an Administration Server
java.lang.Exception:

Answer 1

Well, the server is not running, i just try to start it.
The message pops instantly, like in 0.5 seconds, it looks like nothing is even performed.
- what does the <name> element look like in domain/config.xml ? Does it match the server definition?
<name>dintiruni</name>
<server>
<name>intiruni0</name>
<ssl>
<name>intiruni0</name>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<listen-port>443</listen-port>
</ssl>
<listen-port>80</listen-port>
<listen-address/>
</server>
<admin-server-name>intiruni0</admin-server-name>
yep : C:\owls11gR1\domains\dintiruni\servers\intiruni0
- what is your version of JDK running Eclipse?
Sun JDK 1.6.0_17, downloaded manually.
Same JDK i use during install to run WebLogic 10.3.2.0, I had to do that, since 10.3.2.0 JDK 1.6.0_14
is not a recongnized JDK when you use -vm parameter in eclipse.ini (10.3.1.0 was working)
- Try create a new domain, make sure set it as development mode.
I think i reinstalled WebLogic more than 3 times, recreated the domain with all possible options.
Reinstalled Eclipse (J2EE with Reporting 3.5.1) with only Oracle Plugin. Recreated my workspace
3-4 times.
Additional info:
I have this message as parent item of the stacktrace in the eclipse Log tree: Another server is detected.
I had a server version 10.3.1.0, wich i just renamed the installation directory to C:\owls11gR1_10.3.1.0 and installed the 10.3.2.0 in the same directory C:\owls11gR1
I uninstalled everything, went in regedit, deleted all weblogic keys references.
Always the same problem. Im starting to loose patience... i have rarelly seen something like that.
Edit:
I also tryed with a Server version 10.3.2.0. (I abandonned 10.3.1.0 since i cannot even create the instance in eclipse)
