 Hi,
 
 I'm new to eclipse and am having a problem with the debugger on one of the
 two machines I have installed on.  I ran the same install packages on two
 machines (j2sdk1.4.2_04 and eclipseSDK3.0M7).  On the first machine
 everything works well and I am very impressed.
 
 On the second machine the debugging does not work.  If I run code with
 println statements but no breakpoints the println statements indicate it is
 running through.  If I put in a breakpoint the println statements indicate
 that the code has stopped at the breakpoint, but nothing in the debugger is
 enabled - resume, step into etc are all disabled.  It's as if the program
 has stopped at the breakpoint but the IDE is not getting the feedback from
 the underlying process being debugged.
 
 The key may be that at the end of the j2sdk install I got an error "Could
 not retrieve version info" before the install completed, and I had to add
 the jdk and jre paths to the environment path manually to get things to
 work. (I did uninstall both packages, reboot and re-install at this point,
 with the same results).
 
 So - I realise this is probably a jdk/machine issue rather than eclipse, but
 can anyone give me any pointers?  What does the debugger depend on to attach
 to the process being debugged?  Since a re-install doesn't help I need to
 fix it manually, if possible.
 
 Any suggestions gratefully received
 Peter

 OK, fixed.
 
 I added <j2sdk>\lib and <j2sdk>\jre\lib to the classpath.
