[SOLVED]Eclipse not starting up - pls hlp

Hi,

Today I started up Eclipse, closed a couple of source files and then Eclipse just stopped. I tried to restart it, but did not get more than a (brief) glimpse of the splash.

What happened? And more importantly: how do I fix this?

I did not get to any logs as I cant find them in /var/log - possibly they're hidden elsewhere.

Please help.

Tnx

Thor

If you start eclipse from the command line, what messages do you get before it crashes?

That is all I get....

Is that all you get?  Surely there is more than that...

I was about to ask the same thing, there's no java exception mumbo jumbo attached to that?

Hi,

Ok, just back from work...and I fired up the "Lady" (my PC) and started eclipse...and everything works. I did have quite a few (19) documents open...
What I was thinking of was rebuilding the workspace by removing the .metadata in the /home/user/eclipse folder and forcing a rebuild of the project.

I started it from the console, just as suggested, so I could peek "behind the scenes":

(eclipse:1693): atk-bridge-WARNING **: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup.
(eclipse:1693): atk-bridge-WARNING **: IOR not set.
(eclipse:1693): atk-bridge-WARNING **: Could not locate registry

Possibly something I "forgot" to install?

Well, anyway...the plaything works again. Without any intervention...is Linux cool or what?

I'll tag it "SOLVED" within a few days...just to allow further meditation - if need be

Wellness to all

Thor
