3.3.1: XML editor not installed, or not active [message #236297] Thu, 04 October 2007 15:15 Go to next message

This is a restatement of a question I wrote earlier today.

I've upgraded from 3.2.2 to 3.3.1. "Manage Configuration" seems to show
that I have the XML editor installed (WST 2.0.1: Eclipse XML Editors and
Tools 2.0.1), and "About" says that I have version 1.0.300.v200705302225
of the "XML Editor".

Despite that, when I view a plain XML file, it seems to think it's a plain
file, and the file icon echoes that. When I try to create a new file,
"XML" is not in the category list.

What could be wrong here?

Check to be sure you are running Eclipse under a 1.5 JVM - the WST and
WTP plugins mostly require 1.5 in order to work (although it would
surprise me that they would show up in the configuration at all if they
could not load).

Hope this helps,
Eric

You beat me to it. I realized the one difference between my 3.2.2
instance and the new 3.3.1 instance was that I forgot to specify the Java
5 JRE on the command line (my default JAVA_HOME is still 1.4.2). I came
back in here to reply to myself with that, but you got to it first :) .

Hmm, did you download and install one of the new eclipse...europa-fall
packages? Then you should get an error message if you try to start Eclipse
with a JRE <1.5.
