Hi,

We have an RCP product build using maven. We have a "eclipse-product" project where in the org.eclipse.core.runtime.products extension, i have added the below property

<extension
id="product"
point="org.eclipse.core.runtime.products">
<product
application="....."
name=".....">
.
.
.

<property
name="preferenceCustomization"
value="plugin_customization.ini">
</property>
</product>
</extension>

Our plugin_customization.ini has the below properties set for the welcome page

# new-style tabs by default
org.eclipse.ui/SHOW_TRADITIONAL_STYLE_TABS=false
# put the perspective switcher on the top right
#org.eclipse.ui/DOCK_PERSPECTIVE_BAR=TOP_LEFT
# show progress on startup
org.eclipse.ui/SHOW_PROGRESS_ON_STARTUP=true
org.eclipse.ui.intro.universal/INTRO_ROOT_PAGES=tutorials,whatsnew,webresources,migrate

I have the "eclipse-repository" project that created the product distribution and is on top of the above product project.

Now if i launch product, during the first time launch, it seems the plugin_customization.ini is not loaded and hence i am not able to see the tutorials, whatsnew etc in the welcome page. But once i close and lauch again, i can see those in in the welcome page. I am really confused with this issue. Kindly help to suggest some solutions if somebody had encountered the same issue.
