bwilliams,

What virus scanner are you using? Could you give us a bit more info about your system and issue you are running into?

We do quite a bit of testing on Windows XP, with a massive portion of our user base all on Windows XP as well… if our installers were a complete fail on Windows XP we would definitely know about that. I’m just trying to determine the variable in the mix here to see what could be causing the problem.

All-in-one version 7.0 m2
Sun JDK 6 update 10

Hmmm… maybe it’s an SP3 thing, I’ll double-check on a machine sitting next to me.

ramgs, any interesting security software on your machine to make note of?

[Riyad Kalla]

ok I just did two full download/install/test/uninstall cycles on a Windows XP SP2 and SP3 machine (both with AntiVir installed)… no problems with the All in One installer.

I’m starting to think that this might be tied to the security software somehow that some of you are using?

I am getting a similar error when installing on linux. It installs about 25% or so, then fails with this error.

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed

pirtle,

It sounds like you are using the Pulse-installer on Linux; we’ve seen this behavior problem before when Pulse will pick a mirror that has a goofed copy of plugins so the installation fails when it goes to verify the JARs. Unfortunately this is a problem with the mirrors, not Pulse, and is usually fixed by restarting the install, Pulse will pickup where it left off (once Pulse is installed, or if you are using the Pulse Explorer to install MyEclipse, right-click on the profile and do a “Reinstall and Run”, that will try some new mirrors).

Sorry for the trouble.

Am sorry to report that we appear to be running into another error with regard to the installers. While adding SP3 got us past the initial catastrophic error, I am now seeing it again, later in the install. This time, it happens if you select a target directory other than the default. C:\Program Files\MyEclipse Blue 6.6. If you select the default target directory, the install runs fine. If you select something other than the default, the install crashes when it tries to install files to the directory:

c:\apps\MyEclipseBlue\eclipse\.eclipseproduct

All 4 of the installers below have this behavior. Again, if the default install directory is chosen, the install runs fine.

MyEclipse_Blue_6.6.0_E3.3.2_Installer.exe
MyEclipse_Blue_6.5.0GA_E3.3.2_Installer.exe
MyEclipse_Blue_6.5.1GA_E3.3.2_Installer.exe
MyEclipse_Blue_6.5.0GA_E3.3.2_Installer_A.exe

Please advise.
