I am a member and when I tried to follow the install instructions, I get stuck in the beginning when I install eclipse-SDK-3.0.1-win32. I had MyEclipse workbench working before (the old version), with JBoss as the app server. I didn’t have any problems with my previous installation.

I removed EVERYTHING before starting to install this one, and just zipped up my workspace and saved. When I install eclipse-SDK-3.0.1-win32, and I go run the eclipse.exe file, I get an error which refers me to a log file.

*********This is part of the log file****************
!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi Apr 28, 2005 17:09:44.351
!MESSAGE Error registering XML parser services.
!STACK 0
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory
*********This is part of the log file****************

I have tried deleting it and re downloading eclipse-SDK-3.0.1 several times, but I still get the same thing.

Thanks, Evelyn ( evelyn.dieppa@ge.com )

Evelyn,
You are most likely trying to run Eclipse with JDK 1.3.x and not JDK 1.4.x+ which is required. You can force Eclipse to run with a specific VM by adding the “-vm” command line argument to your shortcut, like so:
eclipse.exe -vm c:\j2sdk1.4.2_08\bin\javaw.exe
