eclipse does not start :( [message #17046] Wed, 26 January 2005 02:54 Go to next message

i'd appreciate any help on the following issue:

configuration:
java: jre 1.4.2_06, installed with the respective sdk-download.
eclipse: installed from eclipse-RCP-3.0.1-win32.zip
plugin: c++ development plugin installed from
org.eclipse.cdt-2.0-win32.win32.x86.zip

the config.ini created by the eclipse installation did not contain values
for most of
the keys - normal? after removing all the comments, the config.ini boils
down to:
osgi.bundles=plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime_3.0.1
eclipse.product=features/org.eclipse.cdt_2.0.0
eclipse.buildId=M200409161125
eof=eof

i also tried to change some of the values, but it did not help. the
comments in the
config.ini are not helpful to the newcomer. i could not find anything
helpful for my
problem in any of the docu-files coming with the eclipse distribution.

when i start eclipse it fails (log file contents):

!SESSION Jan 25, 2005 23:08:51.343

what is the particular problem here?

may main problem is that i am not familiar with the technical terms
related to eclipse.
e.g. the log quoted above states "unable to acquire application
service"... but what is
an application service in this context? or: what is an osgi-framework? and
so on - is
there any docu around that explains this basic stuff?

Ulrich,

Start over again with the download and clean install of
eclipse-SDK-3.0.1-win32.zip. The RCP download you started with is the
basis for developing for the Rich Client Platform, not the full fledged
Eclipse IDE.

Hope this helps,

- Jeff
