I have just installed Eclipse 3.0.2 on Fedora RC2, and cannot execute  
ant build files. I am using j2sdk1.4.2_06. 
 
Error messages I am getting are: 
 
1. In response to Run | External Tools | build-file 
Referenced class path provider does not exist:  
org.eclipse.ant.ui.AntClasspathProvider 
 
2. In response to Run | External Tools... 
Exception occurred creating launch configuration tabs 
 
Reason: 
No tab group defined for launch configuration type 
org.eclipse.ant.AntLaunchConfigurationType 
 
What must I do to enable support for ant ? 
 
Bill.

FWIW: I have another workaround. 
1. Started eclipse with the -clean option and was able to execute 
my build file without problems. 
2. Then I started another copy of eclipse (without the -clean option), 
which said 'workspace in use, etc'. Exited out of the 2nd copy. 
3. First copy still able to run my build file. 
4. Restarted eclipse (without -clean) which can still run my build. 
 
Conclusion: it probably was not an attempt to run two copies of 
eclipse on the same workspace that caused my problem, but -clean 
can get me past it.
