Description of problem: I have installed eclipse-jdt 3.6.1 6.2.fc14 and other related components (as needed) and yet I can't see the J2EE perspective anywhere Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): eclipse-jdt 3.6.1 6.2.fc14 How reproducible: I have removed and reinstalled eclipse and the same results Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: No J2EE perspective Expected results: be able to activate J2EE perspective Additional info: If I install Eclipse Helios from eclipse.org in /opt/eclipse and make that directory owned by me (normal user, not root), then I can activate J2EE and also install additional plug-ins and features.
eclipse-jdt does not provide the J2EE perspective. The Eclipse Web Tools Platform provides the J2EE perspective: http://eclipse.org/webtools/
