Showing eclipse help in Linux [message #115317] Mon, 10 November 2003 05:31 Go to next message

Hi,

I dont know if this is the right forum but I cant seem to find the
relevant one so please bear with me. :(

My problem is I cant launch the eclipse (v2.1.1) help files in linux
(Mandrake 9.1, with the latest 1.4 J2SE). At first it launches mozilla and
gives me the error that it cant find google.com. I changed the help server
settings to use opera instead and there I found out that it tries to
connect to a specific port (37269?) which I am assumming to be the help
server. Netstat doesnt show anything listening on that port.

Does anybody know how I can launch the help file successfully? As far as
I know, I dont have any firewall apps running. Thanks for any
help/pointers/links that you can provide.

ciao!

Hi Erwin,

Seems to work fine for me when displaying the help (Debian/Mozilla/M4) -
do you per chance have a proxy set? If so that might be interfering with
the transport of data between the server/browser.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Marcus

Hi Marcus,

Thanks for the reply but I dont have any proxies. I rarely connect with
this machine its pretty much a stand-alone so I dont have any firewalls
enabled too. Is there a zipped HTML version of the tutorials anywhere so I
can just open it normally from the browser?

ciao!

doc.zip in 'eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.isv_3.0.0'. Is that what
you're after mate?

Help questions should be directed to eclipse.platform group.
Check the workspace/.metadata/.log if there is problem starting help server
reported there. In the browser, ensure that connection to local addresses
(localhost and 127.0.0.1) does not go to a remote proxy server.
As a workaround you can use http://help.eclipse.org/help21/
