    I have several projects in the workspace.
    The console window has “A console is not available.” for all projects.
    There is no System.out output from any of the applications in the workspace.

    The console was working just fine, then MyEclispe locked up and I re-booted the PC. Since then the console has no longer been availiable.

    Thanks,

    System Setup ——————————-

    Operating System and version:
    Eclipse version: 3.1.0
    Eclipse build id: I20050627-1435
    Fresh Eclipse install (y/n): y
    If not, was it upgraded to its current version using the update manager?
    Other installed external plugins:

    Are there any exceptions in the Eclipse log file?

    !MESSAGE A workspace crash was detected. The previous session did not exit normally.

    Jonathan,
    Try shutting down MyEclipse and adding -clean to your command line arguments then running it. That should cleanup the corrupted plugin cache state in the workspace.

    what command line arguments?

    The -clean comment line argument.

    which file is referred to?

    When you run Eclipse:

    
    eclipse.exe -clean
    

    for example. That will cleanup your workspace and rebuilt all your plugin caches.

    i tried modifying the config.ini file to include osgi.clean=true
    I closed and restarted myeclipse (eclipse) and I still have the problem. the message “no console is available” is displayed.
    I am attempting my first use of both myeclipse and eclipse and I’m following the quickstart tutorial in the HelloWorld.jsp web project section. I have a HelloWorld.jsp with an error in it. The error is clearly marked in the main window, but no console error information is being displayed.

    ivan,
    I’m not clear where config.ini or osgi.clean=true came from, I didn’t specify any of that above. Did you try the steps I outlined above?

    #244352 Reply

    osgi.clean=true came from the Eclipse Help.
    I also tried what you specified. I created a eclipse.bat file which
    executes eclipse.exe -clean
    This bat file opens up Eclipse OK but the console is still not available and the HelloWorld.jsp error remains flagged in the main window but with no displayed console error message.

    Can you paste the result of MyEclipse > About > Configuration Summary, for me to see?

    I also ran another project which is a HelloWorld Java application. When this project is run, a console window opens up and displays “Hello” etc.

    John,
    When you have JSP validation errors, they should be displayed in the Problems View, not in the console view. Is this possibly an issue of confusion?

    Your setup looks fine.

    (Also this thread is closed because the original poster’s question was answered, but I’ll still help you until you are up and running)

    The problem is that for a Web Project with a .jsp file in error, the window at the bottom displays “a console is not available”. This differs from the QuickStart documentation which shows a Console window which details the JSP error.

    John,
    Please take a screenshot of the problem and post it or email it to support@genuitec.com so I can get a better idea of what you are seeing.
