This was the all-in-one installer on a fresh ubuntu 9.0.4 64 bit platform. Because of the file permissions problems, I couldn’t even enter the license code. I had to launch myeclipse as root for that dialog to even open for me.
I re-set all my permissions to a new group and allowed group write. Now I can run the software as a non-root user. However, either as root or not, I still get warnings and errors when I launch myeclipse:
ProvisioningEventBus could not be obtained. Metadata caches may not be cleaned up properly.
I also get key-binding warnings, which is strange, as this is all from the myeclipse installer.
On top of those problems, Struts 2 defines an Oval library without any jars, which causes the dialog for Struts2 to complain, and you can’t navigate away from the Struts2 library dialog until you add a jar – even the wrong jar.
While we’re on the subject of the installer, why does the folder get created with spaces? This is annoying when navigating the file system.
Also, why does pulse get installed to the user’s home directory who installed myeclipse? For me, that was root. So, to make myeclipse work for other accounts, I had to change the permissions to root’s home. This is incredibly annoying and it was never this complicated before pulse entered the picture.
All-in-all, a VERY negative experience with verion 8.5 on ubuntu.
