Hi there,

My eclipse on Ubuntu 12.04 had been working fine until a couple days ago when suddenly I was not able to launch the second instance. The first instance works fine, and I'm able to switch workspaces. The second instance, however, is stuck after I click <ok> at the message box saying the current workspace is in use. It makes no progress. Jstack contains the following:

Your help on overcoming the problem is greatly appreciated.

When launching from the command line, use the -data switch to point it at the new workspace.

Thank you, Nitin. It works.

I noticed that this doesn't fix the cause of the problem. If I start w/o -data option, it hangs again.

Nevertheless, I can have mutiple instances now. Thanks again!
