Hi,

Occasionally, when I try to save a file in the MyEclipse HTML or JSP editor I get a dialog saying save failed. However, the safe actually hasn’t failed at all. Nevertheless, the dialog is quite annoying the say the least.

I did a fresh install of Eclipse 3.2 and MyEclipse 5.0GA. After installing MyEclipse I restarted with the -clean option. The auto update of Eclipse (which I turned on) automatically downloaded the MyEclipse 5.01 update, which I agreed to install. I’m also using the recommended start-up parameters (-Xmx etc). The only other plug-in I installed is the resource bundle editor plug-in. I’m running on Debian Linux.

In the log the following exception appears multiple times:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 4 2006-08-18 18:23:44.679
!MESSAGE Save Failed

This bug is exactly why we did the 5.0.1 release so fast after 5.0, can you try restarting using -clean again or a new workspace (File > Switch Workspace) and see if you can reproduce the error with a clean workspace?

Riyad,

I just got the same dialog when saving a jsf file. Save Failed:null. I’m on a different platform though: Win XP SP2, Java 5.0 U6, Eclipse 3.2, MyEclipse 5.01 and Subversive 1.02. The file did seem to be saved, but all JSF EL validation stopped working. After a while, other validations (e.g. java or tags) stopped working too.

I started up with the -clean option (in fact I always started up with -clean since I forgot to remove it after the initial restart). In my log I find basically the same exception as the poster above, but I’ll print them here in the hope it might be of some help:

Henk,
Is this reproducable or very random and once it happens are things broken, or no other side effects are noticed if you keep working?

[henk]

It’s reproducable in the way that I get the dialog every time I save said file. If I completely close the file, open it again and then save it, I get the same dialog. It doesn’t happen with some other files I tried. When I keep on working, must ‘editor stuff’ just stops working. Aside from the validations, auto-completion in tags also doesn’t work anymore. E.g. if I remove the </f:view> tag and try to let auto complete create it again by entereng </[ctrl+space], then I just get the message “Content assist not available at the current location”.

One possible other side effect I noticed (but I’m not sure if it’s related), is that in a file I created right after the file that keeps giving me the safe failed dialog, I don’t see any warnings for errors in the EL anymore. Auto-completion in JSF EL still works, and errors in tags are flagged. This other file has the exact same content as the failing file.

[Riyad Kalla]

If you create a new project does it continue? If you create a new workspace (File> Switch Workspace) does it continue? Trying to nail down how to make this happen on our end consistently.

[henk]

Well, if I just create a new file (in the same directory as the other file) it already doesn’t continue in that other file. It seems to stick to this one file.

I created a new web project, created two files in them, one a .jsp and one a .jsf. Tried to safe them a couple of times, made changes, saved again, etc, but I did not see the dialog.

I remember btw that during lunch today, one of my co-workers (who’s the only other person also on MyEclipse 5.01) complained about some dialog popping up. There was no time for me to look at this, but it might have been the same problem. I’ll ask about this tomorrow.

I’m trying to find a set of steps that reproduce this on my end too, that’s what I need in order to file this to make sure it gets fixed ASAP, otherwise the devs have way to much to do right now to hunt if I file a vague bug. Any help in finding a set of steps is much appreciated henk.

I understand this completely. Any bug that can be reproduced can usually be fixed easily, I really know this all too well from my own projects.

I do think that an actual exception given by users classifies this as a little more than just a vague bug, since it gives some ‘proof’ that the bug actually happened and gives some pointers as where to look for. I shall do my best to find a series of steps that lead to this. The other time I simply created a new file, entered some text, and hit safe. It happend then. Maybe it’s some race condition? These are usually quite hard to reproduce 🙁

Ok so this bug was original found (consistently) on Mac and that is why we shipped 5.0.1 so quickly after 5.0, to fix that issue. I reopened the bug and added everyone’s comments to it, I’ll keep check for reproducable sitautions on my end. I am thinking a race condition as well cause it’s so random.

Riyad,

I’m experiencing the exact same problem and the exact same exceptions turns up in my log. In my case it happens quite frequently to a lot of different files. I’ve seen it happening on simple HTML files with only 4 lines in it, on a complex jsp file (.jsp), on a jsf file (.jsf) and even on a tag definition file (.tag). It’s very hard to reproduce. A restart fixes the problem, but after a while it starts happening again on seemingly random files. The only thing that is reproducable is that it does happen all the time.

Something I noticed that the others didn’t report is that after an editor goes beserk, there is a hidden file created following the pattern: .[file in question]_wd3_init.html. “file in question” refers to the file the editor fails on. This hidden file is created in the same directory as the original file. It’s not deleted by Eclipse, not even after I close the editor or restart Eclipse.

As fas as the race condition theory goed, I’m running on a dual core AMD X2 3800+. Perhaps that’s why I’m seeing this problem more often? (if the others aren’t using dual cpu’s).
One other thing is that I’m on Java 6 beta 2.

One other thing is that I’m on Java 6 beta 2.

Arjan, we’ve seen stability problems with Sun’s JDK’s with every new release. Java 6 is no different, unfortunately. Can you please set up to run Eclipse with JDK 1.5.0_08 instead of Java 6? You can do that by adding a commandline option to your shortcut like:
eclipse.exe -vm <path-to-jdk-1.5.0>\bin\javaw.exe

Please note that you can still add Java 6 as an “Installed JDK” in Eclipse and target it to your projects even though you’re not using it to run Eclipse.

I suspected that, yet Eclipse 3.1/MyEclipse 4.X has been running extremely stable with Java 6.

eclipse.exe -vm <path-to-jdk-1.5.0>\bin\javaw.exe

I’ll try switching to JDK 1.5_08 and see if that cures the problem or makes it less frequent. Since the other people who have reported this problem do not seem to be running Java 6, it might not be the cause. If it makes the problem occur less frequent, it may be a good thing for you to test with Java 6 since of course you guys actually want to see the problem during a debugging session.

Btw, one other simple method of easily switching the JDK is creating a symlink called JRE inside the eclipse directory which targets the required JDK.

[augustientje]

I’m still having this problem and it’s starting to driving me a bit nuts. Of course I could always downgrade everything to Eclipse 3.1/MyEclipse 4 again, but I’d rather keep using at least Eclipse 3.2.

It may be too early to ask, but is there already an ETA set for a fix to this problem?
