The general way to check if Eclipse is having problems is to open the Error Log view: Menu -> Window -> Show View -> Error Log. --------------------------- You can also ask Eclipse itself to show the plugins it thinks it has loaded: Menu -> Window -> Show View -> Other -> Plugin Development -> xxxxxx where xxxxx is one (or more) of plugins, plugin registry, or target platform (at least for Eclipse 3.6.2). -Marshall > The problem here may still be that IT doesn't grand me permission to write in > the eclipse directory (they have to do all the folder updates...), so there > will be no log files I guess. > > Thanks, > > Alex > -- > Alexander G.
