I’d like to do Help -> Software Updates and update Eclipse from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2, but I don’t want to cause any problems with the MyEclipse 3.8.4 installation I have.

Has anyone done this successfully yet?

Thanks,
Graeme

I’ve updated eclpise from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2 using the update manager and did not run into problem.

I did the same, and now when I open a JSP, Eclipse crashes like this:

–snip-snip–

JVM terminated. Exit code=1
/usr/java/jdk1.5.0/bin/java
-Xmx512M
-cp /opt/eclipse/startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main

Hmm, don’t loose hope just yet.

Try and downgrade to JDk 1.4.2_08, Eclipse 3.0.x is not certified on JDK 1.5 and 1.5 does have *some* issues, albeit very few but there are still some.

I’m not so sure it does work. I’m trying it out and I have two problems.

#1 – When I try to do an ant build it requires me to put servlet-api and jsp-api jars from Tomcat into the Ant build path even though we use Oracle 10g and thus J2EE in our compile build path

#2 – I can’t start the server and get to it. I start it and get “05/04/19 07:33:00 Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE 10g (10.1.2.0.0) initialized”, but when I try to navigate to the site I get a 404 error.

So either our setup is royally hosed or something isn’t right.

I’m not sure I understand this, you need the Servlet/JSP APIs in your ant script wether they come from Tomcat or Oracle.. were you saying that you were confused because Oracle was already in the build script, OR because it was already in your build path in Eclipse? Remember that no matter how Eclipse is setup, Ant runs in a separate process completely ignorant of any Eclipse settings you have.

#2 – I can’t start the server and get to it. I start it and get “05/04/19 07:33:00 Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE 10g (10.1.2.0.0) initialized”, but when I try to navigate to the site I get a 404 error.

If you shut down the server and run it without Eclipse, does the site magically work, or does it still give you 404s? If it still gtives you 404s, then that is good news, this is just a configuration or deployment error on your end… if it magically works, this I’m not sure what is missing.

Either way we have support for Oracle 10g filed as an issue we are trying to get into the 4.0 release for sure. If it slips, it will only likely be to the 4.0.1 release.

Hi All,
I am running MyEclipse3.8.4 with Eclipse 3.0.2 without any issues but with JDK1.4.2_08 and not with JDK1.5.

Try Eclipse 3.1.X if someone wants to use JDK1.5 with MyEclipse release for 3.1.x release.
