I had made an maven project and it worked fine.
Then I installed plugins
EclEmma Java Code Coverage,
PHP Development Tools (PDT),
Eclipse.orgSonarQube
Then I worked on some other project. When I again wanted to create an maven project,it threw the following error window which said
The selected wizard could not be started
reason
plug-in org.eclipse.m2e.core.ui was unable to load class
org.eclipse.m2e.core.ui.internal wizards.MavenProjectWizard
Removed SonarQube plugin .This solved the issue.
Now it works all fine.
But is there any other solution to this problem since I have to use sonar.
Click on eclipse help tab and open installation details search sonar and remove all related plugins.
That's not quite the right characterization of what it says on the page,Please check your .log file /path/workspace/.metadata/
Find the correct plugin which is causing this problem and update to compatible version of the plugin with eclipse version.
To find the hidden files in the workspace use Ctrl+H
I had the same problem, and I've tried so many solutions. But what I did to solve the problem, is that I just upgraded my Eclipse IDE (2019-06 to 2020-03) by following these steps (from https://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_upgrade_Eclipse_IDE%3F) :
You first need to add the new release's repository as follows:
1-1. Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites
1-2. Click 'Add'
1-3. Enter the URL https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2020-03/
1-4. Click 'Ok'
Help > Check for Updates
If updates are found, proceed through the install wizard and restart the IDE when
prompted. Otherwise, read carefully the error message to find out which component
is conflicting and establish your resolution strategy.
Note that the start splash screen may be cached and will not necessarily be
updated to the latest version after the IDE is restarted. Performing a full
relaunch should display the new version number.
On the evosuite documentation website, they have a unhelpful video.
The video shows that when you right click the text editor in eclipse, there is an evosuite icon after "replace with", but I haven't figured out how I can do that after I tried different answers on website.
I put evosuite.jar in the folder of eclipse plugins and then use plug-in from Existing JAR Archives functions of eclipse to import it.
Am I anywhere close?
Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks in advance
It looks like the update site is here: http://www.evosuite.org/update/
Paste this URL into your Eclipse Install manager's work with text box (Help -> Install new software...), select evosuite and next. Follow the instructions to install.
You may have to de-select the option “Group items by category” to see EvoSuite listed if you harness the power of Andrew Eisenberg's answer
I'm unable to add new ant builder. I'm getting following message with a dialog box:
"no tab group defined for launch configuration type org.eclipse.ant.AntLaunchConfigurationType".
Could you please let me know where I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!
This might happen when we try to download a software from Eclipse Marketplace and if the installation was not done properly. Please try to uninstall the Ant tool and install it again. Best practice is to restart the IDE and usually it will ask for that automatically after the installation.
P.S. : Also try to search for Eclipse Marketplace update, it might cause an issue sometimes.
My standard Eclipse "Welcome Page" is blank. How do I restore this page so that it shows the original links? The welcome page for the Eclipse CDT (C/C++ Development Tooling) will display. All of the help sections are still accessible.
Here are some details of my environment:
Eclipse Indigo Service Release 1
Windows 7
A whole bunch of plugins
This is not much to go on, I know. I could post all the logs from my installation details, but those would go on for pages. My Eclipse installation on Xubuntu has all the same plugins and the welcome screen still displays the links.
Has anyone else run into this problem recently and been able to resolve it, if so how?
What installation details should I look at or post to help debug this problem?
Try going to Help → Welcome.
Delete the current installation, and unzip a freshly downloaded copy.
Help -> Welcome then click Customize icon at top right corner and the select Apply setting to all products sharing this workbench and click Save As.. Save the file name with Welcome2.html
Help -> Welcome. then use the "home" button
I have just installed Eclipse 3.5 for Java EE developers ("Galileo").
I need to add an extra plugin, but when I select the "Install New Software ..." menu item, nothing happens. Literally nothing - no dialog opens, no error message is displayed. If I have the Debug window open, no message are displayed.
If I go to Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Software Sites, that dialog opens OK, I can manage the list of update sites, and test the connections, and they all appear OK. But I cannot get to use them to actually install anything.
Is it just broken, or could there be something more subtle wrong?
Thanks.
Start by checking you error log under Window -> Show View -> Error Log. See if you're getting any exception while trying to install new software.
You can also install by downloading the plugin and unzipping it in the dropins folder.
I ran into the same problem. There seems to be a bug related to the finish button (I am assuming this is the same problem you are experiencing). The way I got around it is by clicking on the finish button (or next, or whichever button is not working for you) and press the 'Enter' key. It's annoying. Seems to be an issue with how Eclipse is integrating with GTK.
I had the same problem, took a look at the error log and changed the launcher from "/usr/bin/eclipse" to "sudo /usr/bin/eclipse", it was a permissions thing...
GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true also solved the non-clickable button problem for me running gnome 2.28.1 with Ubuntu Karmic (9.10) x64 with kernel 2.6.31-14-generic
To resolve this problem, I did the following:
Placed my copy of Eclipse in the trash
Emptied my trash
Rebooted my computer
Downloaded the latest version of Eclipse (which was Indigo at the time of writing)
Placed the .zip file in my applications folder
Double-clicked on the compressed zip to open it (I'm using Mac OS X.6)
The problem disappeared. I am now able to do Help/Install new software....
I suggest to use Eclipse Indigo (Eclipse 3.7) which contains EGit already.
Something you can try:
Delete (rename/move) your workspace and try again. Be sure to backup all your projects and settings.
Download the plugin "manually" and use Eclipse>Window>Preferences>Install/Update>Available Software Sites to add it locally.
Download the plugin "manually" and use Eclipse>Window>Help>Software Updates>Available Software>Add site>Archive, find the directory on your HDD and add it.
I had the same problem in windows... and spent couple of hours to "somehow" install the new softwares.
Anyway I will explain you how I managed to install it after trying many options..
Start a fresh copy of eclipse
First tick two check boxes(Show only latest version & Contact all update sites). Make sure the check box of group items is untick.
Try to add software...
If not showing the list of plugins/Next buttons.
Delete the copy of eclipse.
Start a fresh copy of eclipse
Tick only the check box for Contact all update sites.
Now try to add plugins. It worked for me...
Even if it sounds crap... it worked for me..
If none of the solutions above work for you, simply change the workspace to another location. If the list of items appears properly then there's probably something screwed up in the workspace and not Eclipse. Hope this helps.
I actually just had a similar problem and wanted to offer the solution that worked for me. This was not a permissions thing. To solve that I always install eclipse as my user in my local directory (e.g. /home/[user]/local/eclipse-3.7.2) and then you never have permission issues.
Setup: Go to Help -> Install New software -> Available Software Sites (to add new site)
Symptom: Try to add a new site. After hitting enter or clicking finish the site shows up in the list of available sites. Click Okay to go back to the install new software and the site is not available in the drop down. Go back to Available sites and the site is gone.
Fix: After adding the site click on the reload button while the new site is highlighted (before clicking Ok to go back to the "Install new software screen"
This was occurring on Indigo SR2 (and has been happening for a while). I am running this on Linux Gtk -- but I don't see why this would be related.
Hope this helps!
Delete your ~/.eclipse folder and restart eclipse. This is the only thing that worked for me.
I had the exact the same problem. What I found out is that I installed the eclipse as root user. Therefore, I need to be a root user in order to launch "Install New Software".
just press enter after entering URL in "Install new software" window
I faced similar issue. To troubleshoot this issue follow these steps:
Go to windows -> show view -> error.
Check the error logs. In my case error was java.lang.IllegalStateException: Registry Directory not available. at org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.SimpleProfileRegistry.restore
I checked my config.ini which is under eclipse -> configuration folder.
I found eclipse.p2.data.area has incorrect path set.
I set the correct path for above key and restarted eclipse. It started working.
Hope it helps
I have faced the same issue. To solve the problem, follow the following steps:
Window (Eclipse Menu) -> Show View -> Error Log
if Error Log is not there, then:
Window (Menu) -> Show View -> Other -> General -> Error Log
Once the Error log is shown, Go to Help (Eclipse Menu) -> Install New Software
Check the Error log, most probable you will see an exception there.
Check the exception, most probable it's caused by java.lang.IllegalStateException
Check the path mentioned in the exception, if you see ".Lock" in the path, close the eclipse then go to the path in windows machine and delete that folder.
now go to the eclipse "exe" file that you're using and open it as an administrator, then try, most probably this will solve the issue.
I`m wondering if this help you.
Let me know if you have any queries.
