    E 3.0.2, ME 3.8.4+QF2, on WinXPsp2 & JRE 1.5_latest, with JDK 1.4_latest & 1.5_latest.

    Sporadically (more often than once a week), I’m losing project validation preferences [Project > Properties > ME-Validation > Override validation preferences, etc].
    Actually, to avoid this, I’m now modifying the workspace setting, but I remembered of it because of the “lost deployments” thread.

    Victor,
    Try using the -clean command line argument as outlined here: http://www.myeclipseide.com/FAQ+index-myfaq-yes-id_cat-30.html#343

    and see if that helps.

    riyad, you mean to use “-clean” permanently when i start E?

    No, he just means one time to ‘clean’ everything out.

    Yes, several times (when I install/update/disable/enable a plugin, my paranoia commands me to open all workspaces with ‘-clean’ at least once).

    Always a good idea. I don’t know why the Eclipse guys continue to resist a “clean” restart when plugins are added or removed. The workbench should do it automatically, IMO.

    Please keep your eyes open for a set of steps that cause the validation preferences to be reset. Once we have a test case, a fix is much easier.

    Since I’m preparing for the team moving to E 3.1, I had the pleasure to waste some time on this. Here your test case, reproduceable with both E3.0.2/ME3.8.4+QF2 and E3.1/ME4RC2.
    * Delete a project from the workspace and import it again into workspace: the project specific validation settings are gone.

    This might be some hint: close a project and open it’s properties: you’ll see that the “MyEclipse-Validation” entry is still present, although the project is closed.
