OS: Mac OSX 1.4
Eclipse: 3.2.2
my struts-config.xml only opens in design mode. I have tried changing the mode back and forth in preference, restarted the app, did a clean. But I just don’t see tabs to switch between design and source modes or a design pallet. It only opens up the file in edit/source mode.

If I right click on file and try to open it with struts config editor it throws the following error/exception:

“Unable to create this part due to an internal error. Reason for the failure: An unexpected exception was thrown”

java.lang.NullPointerException

Here’s what my struts-config.xml looks like:
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC “-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.2//EN” “http://struts.apache.org/dtds/struts-config_1_2.dtd”&gt;

<struts-config>
<data-sources />
<form-beans />
<global-exceptions />
<global-forwards />
<action-mappings />
<message-resources parameter=”com.visualbuilder.struts.ApplicationResources” />
</struts-config>

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

Does this happen with all struts config files ?

Can you try using the -clean and test this again.

Let me know if the problem persists.

I have already tried -clean, that doesn’t do it… I also went through earlier posts and tried to find similar issues, nothing that I found here or on google has worked so far.

I just purchased a myeclipse license last week, and have never been able to open any file in design mode.

newbie22,
There is one more thing that I would like you to try out. Can you switch to a new workspace, create a new project and test the editor once again.

Incase the problem persists in the new workspace as well, I would suggest you go to http://www.poweredbypulse.com and grab the pulse launcher. After launching pulse, add the MyEclipse profile to it and hopefully that should resolve the issue.

Let me know incase the problem persists.
