MyEclipse Mac Users,
We are seeing a failure with our Mac update site at the moment and have temporarily disabled it. Trying to apply the update will fail with an unresolvable bundle named “mac.disabled.for.myeclipse.75.see.forums”.
We apologize to all our Mac users for this interruption and work as fast as possible to fix it. There is the required amount of flogging and self-torture going on in the office for this hickup at the moment.
If you are on Mac and tried to apply the 7.5 update and your install of MyEclipse has been corrupted, there is a chance that the “myeclipse.ini” file, contained inside the MyEclipse executable package (at the root) got deleted while the update was trying to apply. If you right-click on the “myeclipse” executable and do Show Package Contents > Contents > MacOS and find that the myeclipse.ini file is missing, you can try and restore this file to recover the MyEclipse install.
The contents of the file look *similar* to this (please update shortcuts and file references to match your local machine paths):
-startup ../../../../../Common/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20081125.jar --launcher.library ../../../../../Common/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.carbon.macosx_1.0.101.R34x_v20080731 -clean -configuration ../../../configuration -vmargs -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=64m -Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts -XstartOnFirstThreadUPDATE
The update sites for MyEclipse 7.5 on Mac have been fixed. We’ve also investigated reports on 64-bit Linux that folks were unable to update/install from and whatever issues were there seem to be fixed now (tested on Fedora and Ubuntu).
TIP: If you are working on Linux and have a lot of MyEclipse instability, be sure to check this FAQ entry: https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/troubleshooting-how-to-fix-too-many-open-files-on-linux/
Lastly, we appreciate your patience while we got this all fixed, when the Dashboard starts up in MyEclipse you should see the MyEclipse 7.5 update available as an installable item in the bottom box, you can select it and install it and away you go.
I attempted to install 7.5 (from 7.1 on my Mac) via Help->Software Updates->Check for Updates…
