To write in newsgroup?
PS 2: Eclipse Forum and Newsgroups is the same thing?
Yes it's the same, and since this is not a development question but a
user question, it should be in the newsgroup/forum.
Now for your problem, I've got some more questions: is it the good
headless version? Make sure you don't use the 3.5 (galileo) headless
plugin in an Eclipse 3.4. That's about all I can think of for now...
I find the following steps a bit technical (because you need to
understand Eclipse's error messages and a little bit of its internals),
but you might as well give it a spin if it still isn't fixed by now...
Have you ever tried the Eclipse console? It's a great tool (IMHO) to
diagnose these kinds of quirks. It's a console in which you can give
Equinox some commands like manually "installing" plugins in the runtime.
Start it with eclipse.exe -console; the -consoleLog option will help to
debug, and -debug too if you like it extra-verbose (I do). There is a
help command which could be useful, and the commands I use most is "ss",
"install" and "start". ss will show a Short Status of the runtime, like
what are the plugins that are currently running; the Headless plugin
should be absent. You can try to forcefully install it like so:
> install file://c:/eclipse/dropins/headless.jar
It can either tell you it succeeded and give you an integer id, or there
was a problem and it should give you some error message (like a missing
dependency). After that, you can try to forcefully "start" the bundle
like so:
> start <id>
Then again, it can succeed or fail. If it succeeds (or a false fail
because there is nothing to do) here, then retry with ANT. I've hit some
very rare cases where Eclipse metadata was screwed up and forcefully
starting a bundle cleaned Eclipse metadata... or something like that.
Hope this helps.
