Hi,

I'm using eclipse-jee-juno_win_64bit which works fine for most of my workspaces.
But I have one "problem workspace" which I can not open any more (it worked fine in the last weeks).

I took a look into the .metadata folder and tried several things (single and in combination), but nothing helped:
* removed the .lock file
* edited the version.ini file
* edited the .ini file (added "-vm C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll")
* changed jdk version (1.6.0_25 <-> jdk1.7.0_07)

The .log file in the .metadata folder contains the stacktrace below.
So the problem seems to be related to the Groovy plugin.

Does anybody know how to resolve it?
