My eclipse hangs during startup and displays “Initializing java tooling:- 1%” on the progress tab.

Why is this happening? Also, how can I stop it?

muddu_shafi,

Sorry to hear you are running into this issue. Can you answer few queries for me to get to the root cause?
1. Can you copy and paste your installation details? You can get it from MyEclipse IDE menu options click on MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details. In case you are unable to get this, can you copy and paste MyEclipse.ini file located under your MyEclipse installation dir.
2. What is the ME version you are using?
3. What is your OS and what is your system configuration?
4. How did you install MyEclipse? Meaning – using all-in-one installer or pulse or archived update site?
5. Can you mention in detail the steps to reproduce your problem?
6. Did you have a prior install of MyEclipse on your current system?
7. Have you tried to upgrade to newer version of ME using dashboard? If yes, what was your previous version.

Sorry for the inconvinience.

1)
2) My Eclipse 7.5
3) Windows Xp professional CPU: 2.66ghz and 2gb Ram
4) Using archived update site given on http://www.myeclipseide.com
5) I did not had this problem earlier, it just creaped in recently. I closed the MyEclipse and restarted it, at the startup it displays this error on the progress tab.
6) Yes, it was. I had version7.0 earlier and couple of months back I updated it to version7.5.
7) No. I haven’t tried to update it to the newest version 8.0.

muddu_shafi,

Thank you for the details. You have upgraded from ME 7.0 to 7.5, this might be the cause as ME 7.0 is based on Eclipse 3.4 whereas ME 7.5 is based on Eclipse 3.4.2. The best way to fix this problem would be to do a clean re-install. Please follow the below steps –
1. Run the uninstaller.
2. Make sure the MyEclipse Install Directory has been completely removed
2.1. Pulse Install Directory, on XP it’s under C:\Program Files in \Pulse or \Genuitec, and on Vista it’s under \AppData\Local and then under \Pulse or \Genuitec again
3. Then make sure the pulse2.locator file under is erased as well
4. The easiest way to get an install that looks exactly like this is to download the manual installer from the MyEclipse download page. It’s listed as option #5. This is simply Eclipse 3.4.2 with MyEclipse installed off an archived update site that is included in the download. Simply unzip it and run ‘eclipse.exe’ and you’re done.
Sorry for the inconvinience.
