Cannot install Eclipse Plugins - eclipse

I have the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (Juno) installed, and when I went to try to install plugins, Eclipse spat this:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk 2 0 2013-02-24 20:54:28.703
!MESSAGE Could not locate the running profile instance. The eclipse.p2.data.area and eclipse.p2.profile properties may not be set correctly in this application's config.ini file.
What should I do to fix this?

Eclemma: Invalid Input Url Error in Eclipse

After starting Eclipe I see the following error message in the workspace/.metadata/.log
!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.runtime 4 0 2017-09-18 09:38:48.275
!MESSAGE Invalid input url:platform:/plugin/com.mountainminds.eclemma.ui/icons/full/eview16/coverage.gif
!STACK 0
java.io.IOException: Unable to resolve plug-in "platform:/plugin/com.mountainminds.eclemma.ui/icons/full/eview16/coverage.gif".
The message does not go away even after uninstalling or reinstalling the plugin.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
Eclipse: Oxygen 4.7.0
EclEmma: 3.0.0
EclEmma became an Eclipse project and is now part of the Eclipse Java download packages. Due to the move, the plug-ins have been rename: com.mountainminds.eclemma.ui become org.eclipse.eclemma.ui.
If you use a workspace that have been used with EclEmma < 3.0.0 before,
start Eclipse with the option -clean and
reset all Java perspectives (coverage.gif is the icon of the Coverage view and could be referenced in the stored window/perspective layout).
This is the image the error is referring to.
Put it in the proper installation path on your machine and you'd be fine.

MagicDraw 18.3 developing plugins using Eclipse 4.5.2.M

I am having trouble configurating Eclipse for MD 18.3 plugin development.
I have thoroughly followed the "MagicDraw 18.3 Developer Guide / Development in Eclipse" tutorial you can find inside MagicDraw\openapi section to set up Eclipse.
When launching MagicDraw with all plugins run configuration, it throws the following error and terminates:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.variables 4 120 2016-07-20 10:39:12.159
!MESSAGE Reference to undefined variable file_uri
caused by this line of the run configuration
-Dosgi.framework.extensions=reference:${file_uri:${workspace_loc:/MagicDraw/MAGIC_DRAW_INSTALL_DIRECTORY/lib/bundles}}/com.nomagic.magicdraw.osgi.fragment
However, \lib\bundles\com.nomagic.magicdraw.osgi.fragment_1.0.0.201601271815.jar
is existing
I'm running the demo license, but that shouldn't influence the configuration. Any suggestions?
UPDATE
Solved this issue, by replacing reference:${file_uri:${workspace_loc:/MagicDraw/MAGIC_DRAW_INSTALL_DIRECTORY/lib/bundles}}/com.nomagic.magicdraw.osgi.fragment with the actual path and enabling com.nomagic.magicdraw.platform.feature in the bundles tab of the run configuration.
Next Problem: The provided example plugins won't load, throwing
java.lang.NullPointerException at com.nomagic.magicdraw.plugins.XMLPluginDescriptorLoader.loadPluginDescriptorData(XMLPluginDescriptorLoader.java:172)
and therefore
ERROR PLUGINS - Failed to create plugin: My Plug-in 2
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: myplugin2.MyPlugin2
Same message for both, the example plugins and my own plugin. I have checked the plugin.xml files and also experimentally enabled the run configurations > bundles > workspace checkbox.
Try to edit this line:
- Dosgi.framework.extensions=com.nomagic.magicdraw.osgi.fragment
Setting up a new clean Eclipse installation solved everything.

Eclipse RCP: Unresolved Requirement

I have two local plugin projects in eclipse, both maven projects.
AvgPowerTool
AvgPowerCommon
AvgPowerTool is dependent on AvgPowerCommon (It uses classes from AvgPowerCommon).
When I run the application and try to instantiate a class from AvgPowerCommon the application exits with an exception:
java.lang.RuntimeException: No application id has been found.
Above it, in the log I see:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.equinox.app 0 0 2015-06-02 12:08:10.113
!MESSAGE Product AvgPowerTool.product could not be found.
!ENTRY AvgPowerTool 2 0 2015-06-02 12:08:10.164
!MESSAGE Could not resolve module: AvgPowerTool [208]
Unresolved requirement: Require-Bundle: AvgPowerCommon
This is how the required plugins in AvgPowerTool's plugin.xml look:
What can I do to resolve this?
Thanks.
When running an RCP using 'Run > Eclipse Application' you need to make sure that all the required plugins are checked in the 'Run Configuration' for the application (on the Plugins tab).
If you subsequently build the RCP using an xxx.product file you must list all the required plugins (or features) in the product file.

Eclipse luna crashed (Eclipse IDE closed abrubtly) during Eclipse Marketplace loading

I installed JDK-1.8_20 and Eclipse Luna in Linux Mint 16. When I clicked Eclipse Marketplace form menu, Eclipse Luna crashed (Eclipse IDE closed abrubtly). I checked the following answers but those answers are not matched with my scenarios:
Eclipse Marketplace hangs (Luna, Java8)
Market Place not working in Eclipse Luna
Is it possible to resolve this issue?
Update:
I have added log from /workspace/.metadata/.log file:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.resources 2 10035 2014-10-13 20:32:16.558
!MESSAGE The workspace exited with unsaved changes in the previous session; refreshing workspace to recover changes.

I had this problem as well. I had to change a GTK theme to fix it.
Put following into the ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini file:
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = Adwaita
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome
This seems to be related with both GTK2 and GTK3 starting in the same process.
the workaround is to use GTK2 for eclipse as well. This can be achieved in the following ways
1. add the following lines to eclipse.ini before -vmargs(recommended approach)
--launcher.GTK_version
2
2. set the environment variable SWT_GTK3 to 0 before launching eclipse. you need to do this every time you launch eclipse

problem installing eclipse groovy plugin in galileo

I'm trying to install groovy plugin in eclipse 3.5 using this update site.
It does install but when it tries to restart I get an exception.
!SESSION Sat Aug 29 15:47:17 PDT 2009 ------------------------------------------
!ENTRY org.eclipse.equinox.launcher 4 0 2009-08-29 15:47:17.287
!MESSAGE Exception launching the Eclipse Platform:
!STACK java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter

I tried to start using -clean options,deleted workspace no luck
Did anyone get this too??
It looks like you're missing a class or a jar required by the plugin; I'm not sure which one though, since the stacktrace does not indicate any such plugin specific class. You could attempt the following:
Examine the .log file of the workspace to view any additional details of the exception.
Verify if all the Groovy Eclipse plugin jars are present in the plugins and features directory of the Eclipse installation.
Start Eclipse with the consolelog and debug switches, and pipe the output to a debug log file. Examine for anything indicative of the problem in the logfile; if needed post the log file. The command to start Eclipse in this mode would be $eclipse -consolelog -debug | tee debugfile.log
Install the plugin on a clean installation of Eclipse.
OK now finally i fixed it after 2 days of war with eclipse, so for some reason when groovy plugin was installed eclipse modified config.ini file inside configuration folder
so I have to modify config.ini file to replace osgi.bundles value with
osgi.bundles=reference\:file\:org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.0.100.v20090520-1905.jar#1\:start,reference\:file\:plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.core_3.5.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.apache.commons.collections_3.2.1.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.apache.commons.lang_2.3.0.v200803061910.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy_1.7.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35/#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.ant_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35/#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.codeassist.completion_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.codebrowsing_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.core_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.core.help_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35/#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.cstviewer_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.refactoring_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.ui_2.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4,reference\:file\:/Applications/galileo/plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.groovy.core_1.0.0.xx-20090828-1900-e35.jar#4
By default osgi.bundles value is osgi.bundles=reference\:file\:org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.0.100.v20090520-1905.jar#1\:start but as soon as I installed groovy plugin I had a modified value which caused eclipse fali to start.
now my eclipse starts and i see the groovy features too..
I had the same problem with installing the CVS plugin on a Eclipse Platform installation running TeXlipse. Turns out, after installing CVS, the installer had modified not the osgi.bundles, but the osgi.framework.
/Applications/TeXlipse/configuration/config.ini said:
osgi.framework=file\:/Applications/TeXlipse/Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.5.2.R35x_v20100126.jar
and it was supposed to say
osgi.framework=file\:/Applications/TeXlipse/plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.5.2.R35x_v20100126.jar
