Hello all,

Call me blind, but I just downloaded and installed MyEclipse 6.5 for Linux on my new machine and I cannot find any of the buttons or menus to configure or deploy projects to my application servers. The only documentation I’ve found regarding app servers only apply to version 6.0. Has the interface changed for 6.5?

If anything, is there any place I can retrieve/download older versions of MyEclipse, such as v.6.0?

Thank you very much in advance for any help!

meuser69,
The interface has not changed. What version of Eclipse did you setup MyEclipse 6.5 with?

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

meuser69,
Can you please install Eclipse 3.3.2 to a brand new location and setup MyEclipse 6.5 on top of it and check if it works. Let me know if the problem persist.

[meuser69]

Hello,

I installed 3.3.2 and 6.5 to a new location on my workstation and I still get the same results. Actually I’ve installed/uninstalled Eclipse 3.3.2 and MyEclipse 6.5 several times on my machine before making this thread.

Can you take a screenshot of the windows where your find the buttons are missing and upload it for me. You can upload the image by hitting the Post Reply button at the bottom of this page.

Hello,

Here is a screenshot of the interface with the app server buttons missing, and with confirmation that all available MyEclipse 6.5 features are installed:

Here is a screenshot of the MyEclipse preferences with the app server options missing:

Here is a screenshot of the perspective toolbar customization with the MyEclipse app server options missing:

meuser69,
Actually there is 1 other thing to check, can you go to Window > Prefs > General > Capabilities, and hit Advanced and make sure that the connectors are all enabled? It’s possible if they all got turned off that none of them are loading.

[meuser69]

I cannot find the Window > Prefs > General > Capabilities option in the preferences section, here’s a screenshot:

I have Eclipse 3.3.2 and My Eclipse 6.0 installed on a Windows laptop and can’t even find that Window > Prefs > General > Capabilities option as well.

MyEclipse 6.0 is fully installed and working on my Windows laptop, but since my development is done primarily on Linux so I cannot use that machine. I have the same development environment installed on an old Linux machine which is fully functional, but I’m currently migrating to new upgraded hardware. I’ve been stuck on this for the past five days now, and just wish I can find version 6.0 to install, which unfortunately is not available on this website anymore.

[meuser69]

I do want to add that I also have a fully-licensed copy of MyEclipse as well, in case you’re wondering:

Product ID: E3MP (MyEclipse Professional Subscription)
License version: 3.0
Full Maintenance Included
Subscription expiration date (YYYYMMDD): 20090623

Few things to note,

* The Capabilities menu is only available when using Eclipse “Classic” as the base install, as not every disto of Eclipse includes those plugins.

Something we could check real quick thought before we consider new reinstalls is to do the following:

1. File > Switch Workspace > C:\tempworkspace, hit OK to restart. Do you see the server connectors? If you do, then somehow those got turned off in your other workspace and a reinstall with Classic as the base (or using the Pulse-optimized installers is the fastest thing: http://www.poweredbypulse.com/eclipse_packages.php)

2. If that didn’t work, can you go to Help > Software Updates > Manage Configuration, and expand the base notes to see if any of them have error markers next to them explaining why something is failing to load on startup?

[meuser69]

Not having the ‘Classic’ version of Eclipse 3.3.2 installed on my machine was the cause of the problem. I didn’t notice that specific step, especially since my older 6.0 installations worked fine for me on my other machines using ‘regular’ Eclipse 3.3.2.

I reinstalled Eclipse 3.3.2 using the Classic version, installed MyEclipse 6.5 using 3.3.2’s Install/Update manager and everything finally works now.

Thanks for your help.
