Eclipse 3.2 & AIX 5.3 [message #171413] Mon, 18 September 2006 15:35 Go to next message

Has anyone used Eclipse 3.2 on AIX 5.3 with 1.4.2 successfully? And
'success' I define as 'it actually runs'. All I get is a splash screen, and
the process hanging in the background. It's probably something simple that
I'm missing, but I have no idea where to even begin.

I've run java apps on this machine, but I really would like to be able to
debug them with Eclipse.

Would be helpful if you could post eclipse's log file.
Should be located within the eclipse directory ;-)

There is no log file. I would post one if there was one.

The only thing I have to go on is what I get from ps. /usr/java14... is
where Java 1.4.2 is installed. I've been able to run other Java apps on the
machine without problem.

I am setting display back to my laptop, and I believe that to be working
fine - the smit gui can find its way there.

AIX is at 5300-03, and the Java is the Java that came with AIX.

Am I missing some environment variable? Is there some way to turn on debug
or logging so that I can see what it's trying to do?

[eclipse_aix]$ ps -eaf | grep eclipse

Cannot see anything unusual.
Try running "eclipse -consolelog -debug -clean".
This enables Eclipse to make more detailed output to console.

Another guess: Maybe try an older version of Eclipse, e.g. 3.1.2
