    If I leave my Eclipse running without doing anything, or hibernate my laptop and travel to another location, when I look at Copilot again, it says “Status: Copilot Error!”. In all cases, restarting Eclipse resolves the error, although it curiously disables completions on restart. I have to re-enable completions after it restarts.

    I shouldn’t have to restart Eclipse to fix this. There should be some sort of “reset” option in the menu that does something like what it does at startup, at least with copilot.

    David,
    Thanks for sharing this issue. I logged a bug and we will investigate.

    I have to re-enable completions after it restarts

    By “reenable completions” does this imply selecting “Enable Completions” from the Copilot4Eclipse menu or something else?

    Yes, I was referring to “Enable Completions” from the menu.

    If it matters, this is repeatable. It always happens when I travel between home and office (I hibernate, not shutdown/restart). When I come back into Eclipse, I find the plugin in this state, and restarting Eclipse fixes it.

    Thanks David.
    Good info. What OS and version are you running?
    I have an issue opened in our tracking system. Our team has run a few tests and not yet replicated the situation when waking up from hibernating.

    Would you be open to helping us by testing a dev build in the near future?
    If yes, drop me an email at info@genuitec.com to my attention. We are rolling out a Copilot4Eclipse update as soon as tomorrow. If it does not resolve this issue for you we will investigate it more closely.

    Regards,

    I also believe I am landing in the “Copilot Error!” state even without hibernating. I restarted Eclipse earlier this afternoon to resolve the error, and it was working for a while, but now I see that it’s back in the error state again.

    David,
    Can you do me a favor and try updating to the new version of Copilot4Eclipse that we released yesterday (Wed)?
    I am curious if some of the fixes and improvements improve your situation.

    Can you tell me what is the oldest version of Eclipse this would be supported in? One of my colleagues is trying to install it in 2020-12 and getting this error:
