stephen mulcahy commented on HADOOP-3744: ----------------------------------------- I ran into the same problem with Eclipse 3.4 on Debian Linux 5.0 - I could browse DFS with the eclipse plugin from hadoop 0.19.2 but I couldn't run a Hadoop Job. I checked out http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/tags/release-0.19.2/ and rebuilt the plugin against my local eclipse as follows, ant -Declipse.home=/usr/local/eclipse clean package and copied the resulting plugin .jar file to /usr/local/eclipse/plugins. For some reason the MapReduce perspective was no longer available and I couldn't see any error from Eclipse. I figure maybe moving from one version of the plugin to another might have corrupted something in Eclipse? Anyways - since I was at it, I tried installing the latest Eclipse (3.5, Galileo) and rebuilt the plugin against this version. I then installed it as above and start Eclipse. This time the plugin works perfectly - I can both browse DFS and run a job against Hadoop. So, in conclusion, the patch works against Eclipse 3.5 (on Linux at least) also. +1 on including this in the release. > Eclipse Plugin does not work with Eclipse Ganymede (3.4) > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-3744 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3744 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: contrib/eclipse-plugin > Affects Versions: 0.16.4, 0.17.0, 0.19.2 > Environment: Windows XP with Eclipse "Ganymede" 3.4 > Reporter: Aaron Kimball > Assignee: Christophe Taton > Attachments: HADOOP-3744.patch, HadoopApplicationLaunchShortcut.diff > > > The newest version of Eclipse seems incompatible with the plugin. The plugin > as released in 0.16.4 will allow you to add/remove MapReduce servers, and > will allow you to browse/manipulate the DFS in the DFS Browser, but will not > allow you to run programs. Clicking "Run As * Run On Hadoop" will simply not > cause the run-on-hadoop server selection window to appear. No error message > is given. > Dropping the 0.17.1 copy of the plugin JAR into the eclipse/plugins/ > directory does not fix the issue; it is in fact worse: Eclipse does not seem > to regard the 0.17 plugin as real. No "MapReduce Perspective" is made > available in the perspectives selection window. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
