build error after I moved eclipse to another folder [message #101384] Sun, 11 September 2005 19:27
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi, all,

After I copied the whole eclipse directory from U: disk to e: disk in
another compuer, an error occurred. The error message is:

Unhandled event loop exception
Reason:
The platform metadata area could not be written:
U:\eclipse\runtime-shapes.product\.metadata. By default the platform writes
its content
under the current working directory when the platform is launched. Use
the -data parameter to specify a different content area for the platform.

It seems like that Eclipse is still writing data to U: disk though actually
it's in E: disk (when starting Eclipse, I have already set workspace from
u:\eclipse\workspace to u:\eclipse\workspace).

I noticed that at help-->product configuration, when viewing the properties
of the root (Eclipse latform), I saw "file:/u:/eclipse/" under "view
Installation History". So I changed U: here to E: by modifying the log file.
But it doesn't help to get rid of the error. I also checked registry table
for "U:" and found nothing helpful. So I guess there are somewhere else that
store the path infomation, but where is it?

Thank you & Regards!
Vince
