I just downloaded myeclipse 8.6. I try running the myeclipse installer, and it fails telling me to look at the log file (/Library/Genuitec/Pulse Explorer/workspace/.metadata/.log)

The log file contains this:

Any idea what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks,

Matt,

Sorry to hear you are running into this issue. Looks like there is a conflict with log4j. Can you take a look at this post – http://www.myeclipseide.org/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-24830-view-next.html ?
Let me know if this helps.

I removed the log4j jar from /Library/Java/Extensions and that fixed it. Thanks for the help.

Good to hear you are all set.

Best.
