Hi,

I installed myeclipse-7.5.0-win32.exe to use the profiler. But when I try to profile a class (even the com.myeclipseide.examples.m4m.Main example) I get always the message “Incompatible JRE”
“VisualVM for MyEclipse requires that your client application be run using JRE 1.6.0_07 or higher in order for profiling to function correctly. …”

Before installing myeclipse 7.5 I uninstalled all java versions and installed jdk-6u16-windows-i586.exe. I did not uninstall myeclipse 6.

What shall I do to use the profiler?

Thanks
Holger

Holger,

Sorry to hear you are running into this issue. Can you answer few questions for me to quickly get to the root cause –

1. Can you copy and paste your installation details? You can get it from MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.
2. How did you install ME7.5? Did you install using the all-in-one installer, or pulse, or using eclipse 3.4.2 classic added ME as a plugin?

Sorry for the inconvinience.

Holger,

Thanks for the details. I am not able to reproduce this at my end. Can you try something for me? (My apologies, if you have already tried this option, I want to ensure that you have followed the below steps and are still not able to view the Visual VM profiler)
1. From MyEclipse IDE menu options click on MyEclipse > MyEclipse Start Page.
2. This should open MyEclipse Start Page, next click on [Example Projects]
3. This will open Examples on Demand browser. Install M4MContactManagerExample.
4. Right click on the project. Click on Profile As > Profile Configurations.
This will open Profile Configurations window.
Make sure the Project selected is M4MContactManagerExample and Main class is com.myeclipseide.examples.m4m.Main. Next click on [Profile].
This should open VisualVM also it should open the applet – Contact Manager where you can perform a lot of operations such as – [Add]/[Edit]/[Remove].

In case the above doesn’t work, can you attach screenshots and also check if you have relevant errors logged in your log file? Your log file is located at [your workspace dir]/.metadata/.log

Joy,

I could follow your instructions until “Next click on [Profile]” because this button is disabled.
But if I select “Debug As” instead of “Profile As” I can click the [Debug] button and the Contact Manager starts.

The directory [your workspace dir]/.metadata is empty.

Any idea?

Thanks
Holger

P.S. How can I attach screenshots to this reply?

[support-joy]

Holger,

You can either [pm] me the screenshots or send a mail to support@genuitec.com with the attached screenshots. Also refer to this thread, this will help in quick issue tracking. Please add ATTN:Joy in the subject.

Holger,

Thank you for all the screenshots and details — I think this is a case of mistaken identity — notice in your last screenshot where you go to the J:\jdk6\bin directory and run “java -version”, this actually won’t run the Java in that current directory, it will merely run the “java” executable that occurs first in the system path, which looks like a totally valid 1.6.0_16 build somewhere.

If you run J:\jdk6\bin\java -version from the command line, that will force that executable to run. The easiest thing to do though, is on the JRE tab, or under the profiler configuration tab, instead of selecting the “JDK6” JRE, click “Alternative” and select the official 1.6.0_13 JRE that is used to run MyEclipse from the drop down and gets pre-registered on startup. That’s the JRE that we’ve done the most testing with anyway so it should give you a really fluid experience.

TIP: You can type “set PATH” on the command line to see what your current PATH is set to, to try and discover if you are picking up Java from somewhere else.
