Re: Upgraded to 7.0.0.4 and now can't launch WDSC

Bob:

Having configuration folder empty after an install, except for
org.eclipse.update seems like it would be okay. Looks like the folder
is created when
the product is installed and on any update.

What errors are you getting? In the workspace/.metadata folder is a
file name ".log". That will list the errors if WDSCi gets far enough
into the launch.

Does it ask for a workspace before crashing?

I had already tried the uninstall/reinstall route once, but just tried
it again anyway. Still no go. I checked my \SDP70\configuration folder
and the only subfolder I have listed there is \org.eclipse.update.

I should mention that my problems began when I installed Rational
Business Developer 7.1, as well as the update to 7.0.0.4.

I have since uninstalled everything but WDSC 7.0. But since that folder
still isn't there, it still won't launch.

Where does the \org.eclipse.update folder come from? I would assume
it's created during the install of Eclipse, but my subsequent reinstalls
did not recreate the folder...

Hi Bob:

swt-win32-3236 is a Windows library with the Windows specific code for
SWT (the Eclipe GUI).

On my installation it is found in one of the osgi bundles

...\SDP70\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\bundles

That doesn't help you much.

I agree with David's analysis however uninstall, re-install, re-upgrade
is painful.

If you can't find it in one of those folders in the bundles folder then
David is right, the installation is hosed. If it is there then I'd try
to create a new workspace and see if it will come up in a clean, newly
created workspace.

If you get as far as the prompt for the workspace put in a new workspace
name and see if it will start.

Good luck!
Bill Blalock

I just upgraded to the 7.0.0.4 fix-pack and now WDSC won't even launch.
I get the error "An error as occurred. See log file..."



In the log file, I have the error message:



!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2008-06-17 09:20:08.524

!MESSAGE Application error

!STACK 1

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: swt-win32-3236 (Not found in
java.library.path)





Has anyone else seen this before?



Thanks
