problem with Help under WinXP Pro [message #264916] |

I have a new Windows XP Pro system with JDK 1.4.2_05 installed (which I
have verified executes java code just fine). When I try and view any of
the Eclipse help pages, the browser window is blank regardless of which
brower I tell the Help system to use (IE, Mozilla or FireFox). The help
system uses the loopback address 127.0.0.1 and some port to access the
help pages.
I believe the Help server is not starting up, but have been unable to
determine why. I believe it is a startup problem because neither Tomcat
or the Sun App Server startup either; after execution of their startup
scripts, http://localhost:8080 and http://127.0.0.1 are unavailable.
Has anyone else using WinXP Pro seen this problem and know of a
solution?
Thanks,
Gil
