Eclipse.org installation file list

Description of problem:

The yum installed Eclipse won't start on my computer.  Eclipse downloaded from Eclipse.org works fine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

$ yum list eclipse\*

$ uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 #1 SMP Tue Nov 18 12:19:59 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

How reproducible:

I tried to install Eclipse via yum for 3 days without success.  I tried all the variations I could think of:

- only installing certain eclipse packages
- all 4 Java packages
- as user and root
- eclipse, eclipse -clean

The error message would change but it wouldn't start up.




Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install a few Javas.

2. yum remove eclipse\*  rm -rf /usr/lib/eclipse   rm -rf /usr/share/eclipse  rm -rf ~/.eclipse

3. yum install eclipse-cdt

4. run it with all the aforementioned combinations 

Actual results:

Splash screen will show and then a dialog will appear stating that Eclipse had an error and to consult the log file. 

Expected results:

It should just run. 

Additional info:

I ended up downloading Eclipse 3.4.0 from Eclipse.org.  It ran fine, no problem.  I downloaded all the packages I needed for my work and it continues to run fine.  The yum version still doesn't run.   

I'm including the file listing for my eclipse 3.4.1 installation as well as /usr/lib/eclipse and /usr/share/eclipse for the yum installation as well as two of the more common error messages.  The error messages seem to change depending
what version of Java is used. 

Let me know what else you need to troubleshoot this.

Comment 6 Linuxguy123 2008-12-04 06:24:25 UTC
I included the dir listings in case this is a case of a missing file during installation.  Although my installation has a bunch more plugins installed, I find it interesting to look at the files and their versions with a diff tool.

Comment 7 Alexander Kurtakov 2008-12-04 10:14:31 UTC
Can you start your eclipse with the following commant in console:
"eclipse -debug -consoleLog"
And post the output here so I can get a better idea what is going wrong for you.

indicate that you started eclipse as root.  If the output of the following isn't nothing, you've got a problem with your installation:

for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done

Comment 10 Linuxguy123 2008-12-04 16:30:04 UTC
I did start eclipse as root at times.  I have also accidentally started the eclipse.org eclipse as root.  It still runs.  It has never not run properly for me. 

$ for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done

Comment 11 Alexander Kurtakov 2008-12-04 17:13:59 UTC
The missing files are part of icu4j-eclipse and tomcat5-jasper-eclipse which are required by eclipse-rcp and eclipse-platform which you have installed.
So in theory this should not happen.
When doing rm -rf /usr/lib/eclipse   rm -rf /usr/share/eclipse 
rm -rf ~/.eclipse
you should ensure that you are doing yum erase for all the package that have installed files there e.g. icu4j-eclipse and tomcat5-jasper-eclipse.
To fix the current situation you should reinstall icu4j-eclipse and tomcat5-jasper-eclipse.

Comment 12 Linuxguy123 2008-12-04 19:15:43 UTC
A) icu4j-eclipse is a dependency for eclipse, but it is not uninstalled with yum remove eclipse\*.  Note that yum remove Eclipse* and yum remove eclipse* don't work. I reported that in a different bugzilla report.

For posterity's sake, I did some checking before I started:

rpm -ql icu4j-eclipse
/usr/lib/eclipse                          
/usr/lib/eclipse/features                 
/usr/lib/eclipse/features/com.ibm.icu_3.8.1.v20080530
/usr/lib/eclipse/features/com.ibm.icu_3.8.1.v20080530/feature.xml
/usr/lib/eclipse/plugins                                         
/usr/lib/eclipse/plugins/com.ibm.icu.source_3.8.1.v20080530.jar  
/usr/lib/eclipse/plugins/com.ibm.icu_3.8.1.v20080530.jar         
/usr/share/doc/icu4j-eclipse-3.8.1                               
/usr/share/doc/icu4j-eclipse-3.8.1/license.html                  
/usr/share/doc/icu4j-eclipse-3.8.1/readme.html        

$ rpm -ql tomcat5-jasper-eclipse              
/usr/share/eclipse                                               
/usr/share/eclipse/plugins                                       
/usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.apache.jasper_5.5.17.v200706111724.jar


Then I checked what yum said about icu4j-eclipse

Nothing to do     

Then I tried to remove it to see what it would say.

Yet if one removes eclipse, it doesn't remove icu4j-eclipse.

Maybe removing the eclipse-rcp package would remove it.

Is this ok [y/N]: N

icu4j does not removed here either, in spite of being an eclipse related package.  It gets orphaned.  Ant does get removed.  icu4j does not get removed.


b) Once I understood this, I set about fixing the icu4j situation.  I couldn't find a way to force yum to reinstall the package, so I did it manually with rpm.

I downloaded the rpm.

# yumdownloader icu4j-eclipse
Loaded plugins: kmdl, priorities, refresh-packagekit
0 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
icu4j-eclipse-3.8.1-4.fc10.i386.rpm                                                                                            | 5.3 MB     00:09

There is the rpm.
[root@localhost EclipseYum]# ls
icu4j-eclipse-3.8.1-4.fc10.i386.rpm


I removed the old package, ignoring the dependencies.
 rpm  -e --nodeps icu4j-eclipse

Then I reinstalled it.
[root@localhost EclipseYum]# rpm  -i icu4j-eclipse*rpm

Then I checked to see that the missing files weren't missing anymore.

[root@localhost EclipseYum]#  for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done
..5....T  c /usr/lib/eclipse/configuration/config.ini
S.5....T  c /usr/lib/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info

..5....T    /usr/lib/eclipse/configuration/config.ini
S.5....T  c /usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse.ini

The icu4j-eclipse complaints have disappeared.


C) now I'll fix the tomcat issue.

Note that tomcat5-jasper-eclipse did not get listed in the packages that were to be uninstalled if eclipse were to be removed.  Unlike Ant, for example.

Download the rpm:

# yumdownloader tomcat5-jasper-eclipse
Loaded plugins: kmdl, priorities, refresh-packagekit
0 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
tomcat5-jasper-eclipse-5.5.27-4.9.fc10.noarch.rpm                                                                              | 4.5 MB     00:08

Check its there.
# ls *.rpm
icu4j-eclipse-3.8.1-4.fc10.i386.rpm  tomcat5-jasper-eclipse-5.5.27-4.9.fc10.noarch.rpm

Remove the old rpm, ignoring dependencies.
# rpm -e --nodeps tomcat5-jasper-eclipse

Install the new rpm.
# rpm -i tomcat5-jasper-eclipse*rpm

Check for missing files:
#  for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done
..5....T  c /usr/lib/eclipse/configuration/config.ini

Test for missing packages:

$ for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done
<comes back clean>

Now I run it again.

It still crashes, with the same error message.  This makes sense because it never ran clean from the very first installation. That is how I got started with the whole yum install/ remove cycle in the first place. 

FWIW, the eclipse.org eclipse install still runs fine. 

I appreciate the effort we are putting into this.  Thanks.

Comment 14 Andrew Overholt 2008-12-04 20:42:31 UTC
Please paste the output of:

rpm -qV icu4j-eclipse tomcat5-jasper-eclipse

and again of:

for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done

Comment 15 Linuxguy123 2008-12-04 20:57:02 UTC
$ rpm -qV icu4j-eclipse tomcat5-jasper-eclipse
$ for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done
$ 
no output from either command.

Comment 16 Andrew Overholt 2008-12-04 21:06:56 UTC
Okay, so it looks like your installation is fine.  Now try this:

eclipse -clean -data /tmp/testnewworkspace

If that doesn't work, try:

mv ~/.eclipse{,.20081204bug474509}; eclipse -data /tmp/testnewnewworkspace

THIS WORKED.  I can't believe it. 

So what is the problem ?

Comment 19 Andrew Overholt 2008-12-04 22:01:16 UTC
Your first problems were that you had a messed up installation.  Once that was fixed, there was something messed up in ~/.eclipse.  I'm not sure what.

Should we close this?

Comment 20 Linuxguy123 2008-12-04 22:45:42 UTC
I think some things should be investigated.

a) the eclipse from eclipse.org ran just fine with the ~/.eclipse directory.  I never had a single issue with it.

I am pretty sure that I didn't mess up the initial installation of the Fedora Eclipse.  Its pretty hard to mess up "yum install eclipse-cdt".  The problem all along was that the Fedora app wouldn't run with the ~/.eclipse from version 3.2.

What makes the Fedora eclipse not work with the same ~/.eclipse that the eclipse.org works with ?  I think this should be investigated.

b) I would make it so that uic4j-eclipse and tomcat5-apache-eclipse get uninstalled if eclipse gets uninstalled and they aren't needed for anything else.  This is what happens with ant, right ?
 
c) I had this thought after our <offline> conversations about how Fedora packages Eclipse components into rpms when Eclipse.org ships it as a tarball of files:  how is the Fedora eclipse installation supposed to co exist with downloads from Eclipse.org ?

For example, I could install Fedora eclipse and then (as root?) go to  Help-> Software Updates -> Available Software and install (non yum/rpm compliant) stuff to my hearts content.  At that point one would have a truly contaminated installation... the yum/rpm installation is no longer correct and the upgrades being installed were expecting an eclipse.org install, not a Fedora install.  There are subtle differences, especially if updates with a mixture of yum and eclipse.org downloads. 

I think this explains some of the problems that I have experienced over the years trying to run Fedora's eclipse.   I have always had problems with it and yet I've always had good success with the Eclipse.org install. 

It seems very risky to mix the Fedora install with downloaded Eclipse.org packages.  Am I right ?

Comment 21 Linuxguy123 2008-12-04 22:48:30 UTC
I think I could recreate the ./eclipse directory I had when I installed the Fedora eclipse in F10.

I backed it up a while back.  I could swap in the old ./eclipse directory and see if the <now running> Fedora eclipse will run. 

Is it worth it ?

The eclipse.org instance doesn't know anything about ~/.eclipse.

I'm 99% sure this isn't supported upstream (moving configuration areas between major versions) as they don't support upgrades across major versions (but they do support keeping workspaces around).  That being said, the directory in ~/.eclipse should have the major version (3.2.0 vs. 3.4.0) in its name so the old one shouldn't have been read.

This is something that is unrelated to Eclipse.  You're thinking of something that I've heard yum people talk about.  I think Seth blogged about it at one point.

You are correct.  You can install things using the update manager from within Eclipse as a regular user and those JARs, etc. will get downloaded into ~/.eclipse somewhere (you shouldn't care where :) and they will Just Work.  If you want to install things on top of Fedora Eclipse, use the update manager and it should work.  Don't do things like *update* what you installed as RPM using the Eclipse update manager -- do that with yum :)

Don't worry about sending your ~/.eclipse.  I've got plenty of corrupt ones I can play with :)

Thanks for your persistence on this.

"The eclipse.org instance doesn't know anything about ~/.eclipse."

I didn't realize that.  I guess we could say that the Fedora instance couldn't handle the existing 3.2 ~/.eclipse dir.  I'm not sure if it should or not.  Maybe something should be added to the release notes about this.

I'll leave this with you to discuss with him...

WOW.  I had no idea.  I never really looked in that dir.  I thought everything was somehow installed in /usr/lib.  I never really thought about it.

That requires a bit of knowledge and consciousness on the part of the user.  Its very easy to accidentally select a package and update it, especially if one has a lot of packages installed.

I think it would be well worth it for someone to write up an explanation of a few things for Fedora eclipse users:

a) prior ~/.eclipse directories should be removed before backing up

b) yum remove eclipse/* doesn't remove all the files in /usr/lib/eclipse and /usr/share/eclipse and therefore users should not remove these dirs willy nilly.

c) ~/.eclipse holds packages downloaded from eclipse.org.  It is as essential as the /usr/lib/eclipse directory. 

d) one must be careful not to download eclipse.org package updates for packages that were originally installed via yum. 

This information would have helped me many times over. 

Note for readers:  If you are experiencing the bug first discussed, here are the steps for troubleshooting:

a) check that your installation is complete.
$for f in `rpm -qa | grep eclipse`; do rpm -qV $f; done

b) if you are running a prior version of eclipse, back up the ~/.eclipse directory and remove it.  

c) be aware of the things I discussed in this post above. 

Thanks for your help with this, Andrew.  Good work.

It should have handled the older 3.2 directory in ~/.eclipse because it wouldn't read it :)  I tested this and it worked.  The thing to note here is that upstream's release 1) has no idea about anything outside of its unzipped location and 2) doesn't support in-place upgrades from one major version to the next.

Regular users can't write to /usr :)

Only if the person is mixing the notion of RPM and application upgrades.

I'd be very receptive to you writing this on the Fedora wiki.

> a) prior ~/.eclipse directories should be removed before backing up

Sure, but only required if there are startup issues.  Which of course there shouldn't be :)

One should check with rpm -qf when removing directories.

It only holds jars of plugins you've installed using the update manager *if* you've done this.  It is a cache directory for settings, etc. otherwise.

Thanks again.
