Cannot open PHP files after updating - Editor could not be initialized [message #500210]

Hi,

I cannot open PHP files any more after the latest update of PDT. When I attempt to open any PHP file, it says that it is "Unable to create editor ID org.eclipse.php.editor: Editor could not be initialized." and gives me this stack trace:

Can I provide some more info? Am I the only one stuck with this issue? Is it a bug in Eclipse/PDT or is it something I screwed up? It pretty much renders my Eclipse unusable... I guess I'll have to try NetBeans Confused

, then a paid solution like MyEclipse, Zend Studio or something like that Sad

I have exactly the same problem, and i don't know how to solve it.. I uninstalled the PDT 2.2, but i still have the PHP perspective, and when i'm trying to open a .php file in editor, i got that error..

What we can do? Sad

Regards

Hey, same Problem here.

Try to install Eclipse + PDT today and get the same error, when I try to open a php file.
Last week at work everything works fine. Sad

I think it is already filed as a critical bug under

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=295865

which may be a duplicate of

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=295871

I guess we just have to wait an hope it will be resolved soon. I'm just surprised and bewildered by the fact that they can release such a broken update, which pretty much makes an up-to-date Eclipse unusable for PHP developers Sad

I would understand if it were some other type of file, but *.php? Come on, has any testing been done at all?

It casts a bad light on open source projects in general. Imagine a company which uses it as a primary development tool, they can close the business and go on vacation in the most critical time of the year :-/

Now it's our job to vote for the bug so that it could be fixed soon Wink

It only has 2 votes so far, so don't be shy and vote like you've never voted before! Very Happy

After manually installing the lates nightly build (for me it was 200911230913) everything worked fine again. (Could not downgrade, so I decided to take the risk)

greatest improvement for me was, that autocompletion now inserts argument variables automatically (like java does)

That's great news, Christian, hope the fix will be released into the updates soon Cool

Installing the nightly build just doesn't seem the right way to go, since I'm not the proper "risk taker" Wink

I could not downgrade either, that was another strange thing about this bug... Forward, comrades, not a step back! Very Happy

Another solution is to uninstall PDT 2.2 and install the 2.1 version, which is included in Galileo update site. (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo). After that, everything worked fine. This may be the proper way if you want a stable environment and it renders my previous complaints useless and out of the picture. However, there was no notice that the 2.2 was an experimental development branch...

If you look at the main PDT page, you should see that PDT 2.2 is
scheduled for final release in June 2010, so all 2.2 builds at this
point are test builds for people who want to try the latest development
version and to provide valuable feedback on the progress of the release,
but be aware that things may get broken during this period so they
aren't recommended as your main development environment.

Dave, you're right, sorry for the complaints and remarks. I have already installed the stable version, which works with no problems. My bad, I should have seen it coming, at least the "-dev" suffix should have warned me.

However, it might be a good idea to add a notice to the installation page, or at least show the 2.1 version at the top of the page. I came to the page via search engine results and hadn't therefore studied the main page properly. To be honest, I wouldn't pay attention even if I had, because it is too low and nothing labels the branches as "experimental" or "stable" apart from the release date.
