I’m using the MyEclipse 6.5.0 plugin for eclipse 3.3.2 on an ubuntu 8.04 x86 PC.

when I first install MyEclipse as a plugin, it makes me restart the IDE. When it starts back up again, everything works great. Specifically the internal browser is working fine, and selected as the default browser. However, if I close eclipse and re-open it, trying to launch the browser gives me an error “error launching internal browser. please select an external browser from the preferences menu.” Looking at the preferences menu, not only is mozilla now selected as the default, but the internal browser option is disabled. if I move my ~/.eclipse/…/configuration/eclipse folder, start eclipse, stop eclipse, move the folder back, and start eclipse with the -clean option, it “tricks” it into letting the browser work again (but only until I close eclipse, the next time I get the same errors) it’s not giving me a stack trace, just a NullPointerException. Thanks in advance for any help

Can you go to MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details and paste the information here for me.

The NullPointerException is the only exception recorded under the <workspace>/.metadata/.log file?

Another interesting note:
if I do
chmod 000 ~/.eclipse/…/configuration/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.wst.common.*

it seems to fix the internal browser problem, I haven’t found out yet what this breaks, but I’m sure it’s something

no, I made a post that turned out to be incorrect, but couldn’t figure out how to delete it. I found a set of plugins that, if deleted, fix the error, but obviously it causes other errors, the plugins are org.eclipse.wst.common….

[UPDATED]
Just read about the post that mentioned ‘just install libstdc++5’ … and it solves this like a champ!!

[OLD POST]
have this EXACT issue and am also using Ubuntu 8.04.

Basically, when I use the -Dlinux.experimental=true … all the graphical designers via MyEclipse cause the XPCOM error to flash up. And… even if I don’t express that environmental variable on future start-ups of eclipse… the Internal Web Browser option is grayed out on the General Preferences from that point on.

Setting that environment variable makes my eclipse unstable and I have to then re-install the thing.

Any suggestions?

On Ubuntu 13.04 using Eclipse it automagically worked, I was not sure which webkit I was missing, so I installed all that seemed relevant, if someone has pinpointed which it is, please comment,
