We are facing a problem that may force us to abandon Eclipse as an IDE.
The developers are running Eclipse with the ClearTeam Explorer plugin. For some unknown reason, their Active Directory account gets locked out several times a day. while working in the J2EE perspecitive. Something in Eclipse must be authenticating against the domain (or possibly the Web proxy) using incorrect credentials.
I thought it was caused by the userid/password settings under Proxy, but those are correct. Their setup is pretty plain-vanilla. In addition to the (latest and greatest) CTE plugin (9.0.2.5), they only have JBoss 4.23.0. plugin installed.
Please give me some ideas on how to troubleshoot this. Where does Eclipse store userid/password info? Maybe some password store still contains an old password?
When the lockouts happen, I do see a string of messages like the following in the .log file:
!ENTRY org.fusesource.ide.foundation.core 4 0 2022-06-07 15:34:21.362
!MESSAGE Unable to retrieve the mapping from online repo. Falling back to defaults.
!STACK 0
java.io.IOException: Unable to tunnel through proxy. Proxy returns "HTTP/1.1 407 authenticationrequired"
But I think those are the result of the account being locked out already at that point.
Thanks,
Jozef
