Eclipse Marketplace Profile id _SELF_ is not registered [message #1712301]

Eclipse log is below.
I found several links to issues where someone was running on a mac or running a custom eclipse application. I am doing neither.
I have a java EE install of eclipse.
I am looking for a step by step walkthrough of how to debug
"Profile id _SELF_ is not registered" errors.
I am hoping whoever wrote the marketplace module monitors this forum.
I have no idea what eclipse means by a profile

Hi Micah,

That's indeed a strange error. A profile is the collection of installed plugins to run, together with their dependencies and additional metadata. The profile id _SELF_ is a special value that should always exist and be resolved to the profile of the currently running Eclipse instance. So my best guess would be that this problem is not specific to Marketplace, but that your Eclipse installation somehow got seriously broken.

I've opened bug 480493 to diagnose the problem further. Can you provide some more input on the bug? If you have trouble with Bugzilla, it's also fine if you just post it here.
