I am getting an inexplicable error message regarding tools.jar. I say
inexplicable because I have checked PATH, CLASSPATH and Eclipse prefs to
ensure the SDK is being used and I have also checked the SDK to see that
there is a tools.jar present. There is a stack trace in the output which I
guess is the underlying cause, but that refers to a missing atribute, which
is in fact present in all cases.

Has anyone else encountered and resolved this problem, or have any insights?

I'd also be interested to know how to activate the "debug mode" mentioned.

Here is my output:

One of our esteemed developers seems to have encountered this error before
