Problems Opening Eclipse

Hi all,
I know this forum is probably more NetBeans friendly but I would like to do some programming for Android and was trying to make Eclipse work but it seems as it is not opening.
I downloaded Eclipse and then extracted everything but when i went to the open the application the splash screen shows up for a split second and then goes away (nothing happens after that).
I downloaded it and tried it again and the same problem happens with both the Java EE edition and the normal base edition.
Can anyone help me troubleshoot the problem?
Thanks in advanced,
Syed

Actually I'd say there are more Eclipse fans than Netbeans fans hanging around here, but it's probably even spaced. I use both.

On what OS, where did you install Eclipse, what are your user permissions, etc. Also, try to find one of the log files to see if there is anything interesting in there.

A problem opening Eclipse......Please help!

When I try to start Eclipse, there is an error as following.
Here is the following error.

Problems Opening Perspective in Eclipse

I have a new install of Eclipse into which I have installed
the plug-in. I cannot open the Flex Development Perspective. It
just displays the pop-up "Problems Opening Perspective". Its
Eclipse 3.3.2
Any ideas why? Or at least how to or where to look for more
info? Is there a plug-in log?
Thanks!

since your eclipse files and workspace/s are all run on the
java runtime environment and all configurations are saved at the
file level (no registry edits etc.), it's not uncommon to have
different eclipse versions in different folders running different
sets of plugins, defaulting to different workspaces, etc.
That's the long way of me suggesting a new install in a
different folder and trying it from scratch. If it has the same
behavior, you might try a different version of java.

Cannot delete reports, unless I close and open Eclipse/Tomcat

Please can someone help me.
I cannot delete reports. I have not worked out all the details yet but this is what I got so far...
First I thought it was a problem with my tomcat setup, I would deploy my WAR and run the app. After
viewing the report and closing the browser. I would not beable to delete the rpt file until I close Tomcat.
I have now got a similar problem within Eclipse. (as far as I can tell its the same problem but even worse)
If i create any report and design it or even a new blank report. And not do anything to it, just save it as a blank report. I then try delete the
report. Right click and then delete.
After a few seconds Eclipse brings up an error and says it cant delete the file, the reason it gives is
Problems encountered while deleting resources.
Could not delete 'C:\WorkSpace\Project\WebContent\Report1.rpt'.
    Problems encountered while deleting files.
      Could not delete: C:\WorkSpace\Project\WebContent\Report1.rpt.
I have tried creating a fresh new project and only one report. And I still get the error.
If I try delete the whole project perminatly it also gives the same error. (But deletes the default crystal report)
I have to close Eclipse and then open it again before I can delete the rpt files properly.
I have not always had this problem. It used to work fine (dont ask what I have done since
cause I would not beable to tell, sorry)
Hopefully someone can help me, as this is driving me insane, and having to stop and start Tomcat every
time I want to deploy a new test version is not really an option.
Cheers
Darren

Hi Merry,
Thanks for getting back to me.
My reports within Eclipse seem to be behaving themselves now and dying gracefully without and hassles,
so I dont know what fixed that problem as I have not made any changes or done any updates. One of
those things I guess.
With regards to TOMCAT still having a handle on the reports, As far as I am aware I am putting the
report source in session
Below is my JSP that loads the report
I store report name in session via a servlet and set all the DB connection details in the servlet also.
imports....
try {
   String reportName = session.getAttribute("Report").toString();
   ReportClientDocument clientDoc = (ReportClientDocument) session.getAttribute(reportName);
   if (clientDoc == null) {
      clientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
      // Open report
      clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
      // ****** BEGIN LOGON DATASOURCE SNIPPET ****************
         //Call the process to set all the database detail retrieved from web.xml
         // Custom function to set the connection details
         ReportFunctions.setConnection(clientDoc);
      // ****** END LOGON DATASOURCE SNIPPET ****************
      // Store the report document in session
      session.setAttribute(reportName, clientDoc);
   // ****** BEGIN CONNECT CRYSTALREPORTPAGEVIEWER SNIPPET ****************
      // Create the CrystalReportViewer object
      CrystalReportViewer crystalReportPageViewer = new CrystalReportViewer();
      //set the reportsource property of the viewer
      IReportSource reportSource = clientDoc.getReportSource();
      crystalReportPageViewer.setReportSource(reportSource);
      // set viewer attributes
      crystalReportPageViewer.setOwnPage(true);
      crystalReportPageViewer.setOwnForm(true);
      crystalReportPageViewer.setDisplayGroupTree(false);
      crystalReportPageViewer.setHasToggleGroupTreeButton(false);
      crystalReportPageViewer.setHasPrintButton(false);
      crystalReportPageViewer.setEnableDrillDown(false);
      // Process the report
      crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null);
   // ****** END CONNECT CRYSTALREPORTPAGEVIEWER SNIPPET ****************
   } catch (ReportSDKExceptionBase e) {
    out.println(e);
So far its very basic.
How best can I kill and clean up once the web page is closed. I have tried a few options but dont seem to
know the best way,
I tried "onbeforeunload" but I dont know if this is the best practice,
I have a session listener with sessionDestroyed but have not learnt how to envoke this correctly, or atleast when to correctly call it. And then I dont know how to clean out any loaded reports from here.
I have used
request.getSession().invalidate();
at the end of my JSP but that destoys everything everytime a user does anything on the page, (selecting any of the buttons on the report)
I am still learning everyday, and so I appoligise for questions that I should really know, am being pushed into the deep end here so trying my best :).
Thanks again.
Cheers
Darren
Sorry for bumping this back the list, but I am at my wits end as how best to "clean out" the reports
once they have been closed or timed out.
Surely there must be a way to release all objects (be it a actaul rpt file or the classes12.jar) once the
reports have been viewed and closed.
Even if there is something I can load via another servlet that destroys anything that has to do
with the main website.
Thanks and again sorry for moving this back up the list. If i get no replies, ill assume this is impossible
and that the only way to upload a new version of a report is to shut the whole Tomcat service and
make the changes.
Cheers

Can't open Eclipse after working with this every day

Every morning I open Eclipse on the same computer with no problems.
Today, a have got this message while trying to open Eclipse:
"A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK)
must be available in order to run Eclipse No Java virtual machine
was found after searching the following locations:
C:\Program Files\eclipse-SDK-3.5.1-win32\eclipse\jre\bin\javaw.exe
javaw.exe in your current PATH"
Environment variable JAVA_HOME I already have
What can be a problem?

jre folder was disappeared from C:\Program Files\eclipse-SDK-3.5.1-win32\eclipse\
This was a problem. I solved it already.
I do not know the reason for it and how to prevent it for the future.
Thanks

[SOLVED] Android Development Problem with Eclipse

Hello,
Although in the past I had managed to play around with Android in Eclipse, after my clean install of Arch Linux I... cannot.
To be more specific I have installed everything ArchWiki suggests (as I have done in the past) but when I open Eclipse to add /opt/android-sdk to the path of Eclipse, it turns out that there is no Android section on the Preferences menu. I have unistalled and reinstalled everything 2 times but no luck.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.

Thank God! Answers! :-P
@jdarnold According to the ArchWiki about Android, I have to add /opt/android-sdk to the prefences. But that's not the point. The point is that Eclipse does not recognize Android SDK. It's like I haven't installed it. I unistalled Eclipse 3.7.1 and downgraded to 3.6.1 to check if that's the problem but still no luck.
As I reinstalled android-sdk-platform-tools I got this message:
warning: directory permissions differ on opt/android-sdk/
filesystem: 755 package: 775
Any ideas what does that means? I think that's the problem. I don't remember something like that in the past.
EDIT: After leaving a comment to the maintaner of the package android-sdk-platform-tools (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45904) it was fixed!
Thank you all for your responses!

I am trying to open iTunes on my mac. But a box pops up saying "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder". Anyone know what that means? I've had my computer 2 years and its never had a problem opening it

I am trying to open iTunes on my mac. But a box pops up saying "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder". Anyone know what that means? I've had my computer 2 years and its never had a problem opening it

I've already right-clicked on the application, clicked "get info", and changed it so all people listed in the "Sharing & Permissions" section have the "read & write" privilage.
The error message is referring to your iTunes library, not your iTunes application.
You need to check and fix the permissions of the iTunes folder in your iTunes library. This is by default located in your "Music" folder.
Select the folder Music > iTunes in the Finder, right click on it or Ctrl Click and click "Get Info". At the bottom of the contextual window thatwill pop up, disclose the Sharing and Permissions brick, change your status from Read only to Read & Write. You may need to click the padlock icon to make changes.

I'm having a problem opening my files -..

I'm having a problem opening my files …..for example if i want to download something off the internet and run it after it always opens in Textedit which is annoying…..other programs open fine which are dmg but the exe files won't run….i need help

If you are in fact running Mac OS 9 or earlier, which is from 2001 or earlier, .dmg files are disk image files like the .smi files used under Mac OS 9, but they are only Mac OS X compatible. They are frequently used to store Mac OS X only installer disk image files. .exe files are are Windows and MS-DOS executable files which can only run with Windows or DOS virtualization:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2741
Most Mac OS 9 programs you'll be able to download either have a .sea, .sit, or .hqx suffix in their file name and are able to be opened with the old Mac OS 9 copy of Stuffit Expander.
If you are using another operating system, please go to Apple menu -> About this Mac and tell us what you are running. You posted to the Mac OS 9 forum, hence my response. If there is an X in the name, you posted to the wrong forum, and I'll have this post redirected and try to answer if I have time.

I am having a problem opening pdf document. I get error message: "Adobe Reader has stopped working"

I am having a problem opening pdf document. I get error message: "Adobe Reader has stopped working" then I get Windows is looking on line for a solution, but then my document closes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader XI, rebooted my computer but this did not help. I get the same message. What to do?

Can you open Reader by itself? If so, check if disabling Protected Mode improves the situation [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Error: "We're having a problem opening this location on file explorer. Add this website to your trusted sites list and try again"

Hello,
When i try to open document library from SharePoint Production portal then it throws the specified error. However, when i open document library from SharePoint Development portal then it opens it in file explorer quite easily.
Production portal is on https whereas development portal is on http. Also, UAG has been configured on production portal.
Any idea where it's getting stuck up? Surely, this is not a browser issue on Windows 7 as it's opening the development portal's document library on the same machine.
I've also done following things:
- Configured Desktop Experience on production environment
- Installed the hotfix for Windows 7
Regards,
Sohaib
Sohaib Khan

Hello Sohaib.
Here is the list of causes defined here.Hope it helps you
The cause and the resolution methods are the following:
Cause: There is a missing Root site collection...
Resolution: Check and ensure, that the “Managed Paths” are not changed in the web Application’s page, there is a (root) explicit for
this web application and there is a working Root site collection.
If for any reason this is not the case in your environment, you may try the following:
- Apply (if not already) the following Hotfix to one of those clients:
Error when you open a SharePoint Document Library in Windows Explorer or map a network drive to the library after you install Internet Explorer 10 in Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2846960
Then, try to delete the cache of the IE browser before reproducing the issue. Check the result..
- Try to temporarily disable the Antivirus and test again.
- Check if you have installed the Desktop Experience feature on the SPS13 server.
- Check if you face this behavior with all users, Or only with some specific ones, Or with all different client OSes..
Otherwise you will need to collect the logs to further analyze...

I am having problems opening pages in safari. the rotating wheel at the right end of the address window doesn't stop even after the page has filled up. then if i try to open other pages it gets stuck and won't open them.

I started having problems opening pages today. When first open a page it seems to download the page OK, but the rotating wheel on the right-hand end of the address field keeps rotating after the page is completely filled up. Then if I try to open other pages it becomes slower and eventually stops filling-in the pages, while the rotating wheel keeps rotating.
I wonder whether junk is being downloaded into my mac, or what is going on. Help will be geatly appreciated.

When was the last time you emptied the Safari cache?
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
If that didn't make a difference, go back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes then click Reset.
And how much free space on the startup disk?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space. Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
If emptying cache or resetting didn't help and there's enough free space on the startup disk, login to another user account, launch Safari. Same problems there indicates a system wide problem. Log back into your admin account so you can check the startup disk.
Launch Disk Utility. /Applications/Utilities
Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If the startup disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
I wonder whether junk is being downloaded into my mac
Nothing should "download" to your Mac unless you initiate the download yourself. You can check the Downloads folder from the Safari > Window menu or your Downloads folder in the Finder.

Error message when publishing and problems opening output file

I have 5 projects linked together. When I publish one, I get a message that the files listed below are linked to the open project, and one or more of these projects may require exporting. I have tried to open these files and choose File | Export | Project to | but the options in the list (Flash 8 and Flash CS3) are both grayed out--on every one of these files. I'm publishing to Flash 9.
I didn't think much about this message until a few reviewers said they can't open the project, or when they do, they don't see my playbar on the skin.
One more thing--when an IT person was trying to help one reviewer open the output file, the IT person said "Oh, there's a problem with the code in line 25." I guess that's the html code? I'm not a programmer, but I can look at html code. What should I be seeing there in line 25?
Is their problem opening the output file(s) related to my message about possibly needing to export files? Why might they be having problems getting the output file to open?
Thanks for any insights you can provide!
SAM

Hi Sam
It depends on a number of things. Are you certain you uploaded all the files involved? If not, there will be problems.
The message about the linked files is quite simply advising you that you have links from that particular movie that will expect to find the files being linked to.
If a person isn't seeing playback controls and you have included them, it's likely you haven't provided the correct link for them to open and play the file. Typically you provide a link to the HTML page Captivate creates. As long as all the output files are in the same place on the server, you should be good to go.

Try the usual steps: restart, reset, restore.

If restoring using a backup doesn't help, try restoring the iPhone to factory settings and try for a while with just the Apple-included apps, to make sure it's not an issue with a third-party app. If it still has problems, it may have a hardware problem and will need to be sent to Apple.

Problem opening logic 9 in Mountain Lion

Hi there
Just bought a new 13" Pro and wondered if anyone else has had problems opening Logic in Mountain Lion.
The whole of Logic Studio has been successfully moved across with Migration asssistant, except Logic Pro itself whichwon't open because:
'You can't use this version of the application "Logic Pro 9.0.0.app" with this version of OS X.'
Problem is when I I try to install the update 9.1.7 I get the message:
An eligible Logic Pro version was not found in the Applications folder. This update requires Logic Pro version 9.0 or higher.
I also get this message when trying to install the 9.1.7 update on my old MacBook Pro, which has the original version of Logic 9.
Any suggestions?

Post in the Logic Pro forum area.

Sharepoint 2013 explorer view error - problem opening this location in file explorer (HTTPS + Win7 Enterprise 64 bit + IE9 32 bit + Office 2007 32 bit)

Hi,
We have a problem using Sharepoint 2013 explorer view. (Error - We're having a problem opening this location in file explorer. Add this web site to your trusted sites list and try again).
I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit, Office 2007 32 bit and IE9 32 bit. And the sharepoint site is a https site.
Some people in my organization are able to browse and some users getting the above error. (with the same client machine configuration)
If I clear my browser cache, closes the browser and open it then the explorer view is working. But after a minute if I try again I'm getting the above mentioned error. This 1 minute expiration happens is since the first time I have used explorer
view, not since I opened the browser.
I have tried the following on my machine:
1. Modified the web client service to run automatically.
2. Verified the sharepoint site is part of trusted sites (https://*.spsite.com/)
3. Compatibility mode is turned on.
4. Tried adding
AuthForwardServerList in the webclient registry settings under parameters. (restarted the web client)
5. Verified the BasicAuthLevel set to 1 (since we are using SSL). Tried setting the BasicAuthLevel to 2 as well. (restarted the web client)
6. Tried installing software update for web folders (KB907306).
Verified the below on the production server:
1. The web application has the root site collection.
2. It has WebDav Publishing disabled under IIS Web Server feature.
Could some one please help me in resolving this issue?
Thanks.

Hi Deepak,
According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to use "Open with Explorer" in a document library.
For your issue, please verify the following:
ActiveX controls must be enabled in IE.
As you are using Windows 7 Server as the client computer, you must install the Desktop Experience feature from Server Manager.
Make sure there is a working Root site collection.
Install this hotfix for windows 7 work with sharepoint 2013 :hotfixv4.microsoft.com/.../463266_intl_x64_zip.exe

Eric
