Hello everyone,

I know this sounds weird but I had Eclipse with the C++ development environment running on both my desktop and laptop (same OS, Ubuntu 18 LTS) yesterday and this morning I could not get my projects to load. I tried reinstalling the SDK for C++ and nothing works? Does anyone else have the same issue?


EDIT

I tried to install this package,

2022-03 Release of the Eclipse C/C++ Developers Developers package.

and got this error for snap.

An error occurred while installing the items
session context was:(profile=epp.package.java, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Install, operand=null --> [R]epp.package.cpp.executable.gtk.linux.x86_64 4.25.0.20220908-1200, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.natives.actions.ChmodAction).
The action chmod failed - file /snap/eclipse/62/eclipse does not exist

I found the solution as something corrupted the installation. Basically the whole installation of Eclipse has to be removed and reinstalled. On Ubuntu, the snap installation application is used ( as of recently) in the terminal (CTRL+ALT+T). The command for removing software via snap is simply "remove" so that the command becomes.

sudo snap remove eclipse


...And once that's accomplished, the suite can be reinstalled via.

sudo snap install --classic eclipse
and everything should work fine, or at least it did for me.

It looks like the installation of the package failed for some reason. You may need to try reinstalling the package, or you may need to check your system for any errors that may be preventing the package from installing correctly.
