I am not getting the menu option to create a new entity or session bean?
I am running myeclipse 3.8.4
Can you please post all the information we request in the [URL=http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-393.html]Posting Guidelines[/URL] thread at the top of this forum? That will give us some context so that we can determine if this is an installation issue, a configuration problem, or a bug. Thanks.
I wouldn’t have posted the question if I hadn’t reviewed the documentation and the formus.
I havd installed twice with same results.
So if the answer exists where is it? I spent a couple of hours on the forums.
I am not sure what advantage you are gaining by not answering the questions, making it impossible for me to help you. Your problem can be caused by just shy of 700 different things, knowing your setup (the posting guildelines) and exceptions from your log files tell me how to run this problem down.
So if you like me to help, please answer the questions in the posting guidelines.
I did not see those questions. Sorry!

Are there any exceptions in the Eclipse log file? just messages like could not install xx.xxx.xxx cause it is allready installed. (<workspace>/.metadata/.log)
I can tell you one other interesting fact. I have 2 licenses. On my other machine I updated via software update. Everything seems to work fine that way.
Let’s try something quick and easy:
1) Shut down MyEclipse
2) Edit the shortcut you use to start MyEclipse (or Eclipse) and add the -clean command line argument to your path (before any other extra command line args like -vm or -vmargs).
3) Start MyEclipse
4) Do you see the File > New > J2EE wizards now? Do they work? (I am assuming this is what you can’t see?)If that didn’t work, you can remove the -clean argument, go to you Help > Software Updates > Manage Config page, do you see MyEclipse listed here?
Go to Window > Preferences, do you see MyEclipse listed here under preferences? If you expand it, do you see a lot of sub preference pages?
Try and execute the EJB wizard, and when it fails check your log file and paste the error here.
I had done that (-clean). I could always see the j2ee wizard to create an EJB Project, but it was a challenge to get the ejb (session, entity, and message) option.
I do believe the difference between the two machines is the win2k patches. One that works has the latest patches. The other deskctop that didn’t work doesn’t have the latest patches. It is at sp4.

I am having a hard time understanding you, so I need you to walk me step-by-step through the process (so I can reproduce it here) and tell me which steps breaks on your machine.
