I have eclipse 3.1.1 installed, downloaded and installed MyEclipse 4.0 for eclipse 3.1 (EnterpriseWorkbenchInstaller_4.0.3GA_E3.1.bin).

However, when I try to create a MyEclipse web project, i get this “Invalid Eclipse Base Version” error.

If you’ve got Eclipse 3.1.1 installed the likely issue is directory permissions. For trials, you’re required to both install and run MyEclipse as a single user. You can only install as one user and run as a different user once you’ve subscribed and been given a subscription key. Installing as one user and running as another will typically keep the “running” user from having the directory permissions needed to operate the software properly on Linux.

Hi
I have the same problem. I have eclipse 3.1.1 installed on the Kubuntu 5.10 Linux. Eclipse was installed using standard Kubuntu installationa manager – “Adept” – started with superuser privileages.
The evaluation version of MyEclipse 4.1.0GA build 20062201 was installed from my account to the ‘/opt/MyEclipse’ directory.
I cannot create web project because of: “Invalid Eclipse Base Version”.
I would like to check if MyEclipse could be helpful for other developers working for my employer.
Please help me.

Jakub,

Try downloading Eclipse 3.1.2 SDK from eclipse.org download page as opposed to using the custom build that is for Ubuntu. The version 3.1.2 from the following link should work fine.
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.1.2-200601181600/download.php?dropFile=eclipse-SDK-3.1.2-linux-gtk.tar.gz

Hi,

Thank You Greg. Your advice has solved my problem 😀
If Eclipse 3.1.2 and MyEclipse 4.1.0 is instaled by the same user, it is possible
to use MyEclipse. Eclipse shouldn’t be installed from the standard Kubuntu package manager.

I have other question.
When the MyEclipse 4.1.1 for Linux platform with Web2.0/AJAX tools will be avaiable ?

Sincerely,
Jakub S.

The 4.1.1 release, including Linux web20 support, should be out around the end of Feb.
