Could you start eclipse from a terminal like so: $ eclipse -debug -consolelog Could you attach the output you are getting on the console. Thanks! Ok sorry, please disregard my comment above. The logs you provided are sufficient. It looks like this is a problem related to some cached data when upgrading from 3.5.x to 3.6.x.

$ eclipse -debug -consolelog
should show the trace in the console.
Note that I have been using the upstream pydev development "software repository" while running f13, but regularly uninstalled it and thus downgraded to the rpm-packaged pydev without any problems. Downgrades are not supported and they are creating nasty side effects that noone has tested nor wants to test. Closing as Fedora 14 is long dead. Please reopen if still reproducible with supported Fedora release. |
Created attachment 451366 [details] the mentioned log For some reason I got a message box when trying to start eclipse: Eclipse An error has occurred. See the log file /home/mk/.eclipse/155965261/configuration/1286185574949.log. [Close] That message is not alt-tabable (in Gnome), so when switching to an editor/command line for opening the logfile the messagebox seems to disappear. I would expect eclipse to appear in the window list and be alt-tab-reachable if it displays any gui elements. I would also expect such a fundamental messages to also be shown on stdout, especially with -debug. This may not be a Fedora-specific problem, but it is a problem that causes that eclipse doesn't integrates as nice with Fedora as we would like. (Starting with -clean fixed the problem. The original error log has been attached. It might be a problem when upgrading from f13, but I don't have enough evidence for reporting that as a bug.) eclipse-platform-3.6.0-3.fc14.i686
