Description of problem: Eclipse gets stuck in a loop if you try to open a file in its internal text editor. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): eclipse-platform-3.4.0-19.fc10.i386 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start eclipse 2. create new project 3. create a text file "foo" in that project Actual results: Hangs when you click Finish in the New File dialog box. Expected results: New empty file should be opened in Eclipse's internal text editor. Additional info: In the error log, it says that the text editor component seems to be trying to create itself.
Can you try this and see if it fixes it for you? yum --enablerepo=rawhide install tomcat5-{jasper,jsp-2.0-api,servlet-2.4-api}
My comments about tomcat still stand, but if that wasn't the problem, I can't duplicate. I have never run into the printers issue that the upstream bug references. I wonder why I haven't?

I can duplicate it on OpenJDK, and latest Sun JDK 1.6; and on both eclipse 3.3.2 and 3.4.0 from eclipse.org. I suspect it is something to do with the rawhide gtk version (gtk2-2.13.6-3.fc10.i386). Also, I'm running rawhide on VirtualBox 1.6.4 OSE on Mac OS X 10.5. > I have never run into the printers issue that the upstream bug > references. I wonder why I haven't? beats me - btw, I tried the system property workaround mentioned there, and it didn't work.
Here's a JVM stacktrace from the fedora-shipped eclipse running on the fedora-shipped OpenJDK. I'm punting this to the gtk2 component.

This is caused by cups being stopped on localhost. Instead of hanging for a long time, there should be some kind of informative error message. (Or better yet, in the case of Eclipse opening a text file, ignore the problem.)
Since this is an upstream bug, can we track it there?
OK - closing this bug
