Johannes,

The download servers have been running at a sustained 80Mbps transfer rate due to the demand. Downloading with hundreds of other users doing
exactly the same thing is simply a bit slower during peak loads. Don't know if it makes you feel better or not, but I'm pulling a build now with 600
users online and am seeing a transfer rate of over 700KB/sec (5.5+ Mbps). Transfer rates will definately vary by path to the servers etc. I'm located in Texas and our distribution servers are at our ISP in Missouri, so it's not like I'm on the same network or anything. However, during peak load this morning I was only getting 225KB/sec (1.7 Mbps), which is much slower due to the load.

Is this version adapt to linux?

leolyg,
I'm not sure of your question, but yes, MyEclipse has always been supported on Linux and Mac (from time to time we may have a platform specific feature, and we will denote that in the release notes)

I have Version: 4.1.1 GA
Build id: 20060309-4.1.1-GA . I assume I CANNOT upgrade to latest 5.1 ..correct ?

Yes and no.

Yes, from the standpoint of any active MyEclipse subscription is valid for use on any version of MyEclipse. So, if you purchased MyEclipse 4.1, you can download and install MyEclipse 5.1 in another location, enter your 4.1 subscription code, and you're good to go. In fact, you can install both versions at the same time without conflict, provided you install them in differnt locations (which is mandatory). To try out 5.1 I'd suggest using the "All-in-one" installer for ease of install; one download, point it to one directory, and you're done.

And no, because MyEclipse 5.1 is based on Eclipse 3.2.1 and MyEclipse 4.1 is based on Eclipse 3.1. The problem with doing a real "update" throught the update manager is that the Eclipse update manager won't allow an upgrade to a new major release level. So, it won't allow a 4.x of anything to be upgraded to a 5.x of anything. That's why I suggested just doing a new install. Besides, between the two releases every single plugin and feature got updated anyway so a full install will likely be faster than an update even if it was possible.

Hope that helps.

Emmergent Problem:

I got problem to install the manual version of MyEclipse4.1: after downloading it, I got a diagnostic message of "unexpected end of archive" from WinRAR when I was trying to unzip this file. Could anyone help me out from this? Thanks!

Hi,
I've just installed MyEclipse 5.5 M1 but i'm getting a blocking problem because of the chaining of 2 dialog windows: Trial suscription message, and another one asking for an Eclipse restart.

At the moment i open Eclipse, there are this 2 windows. The first I'm allowed to close is the one asking me for a workbench restar. It says I need to click Ok to restart. Then the one remembering me about my comming end of trial period is just unclickable but neither elements in the workbench respond. It's the common behavior for an opne pop up dialog, needing to close the dialog in order i can get control on the workbench. The problem is that the open pop up dialog window (the Trial reminder one) can't be closed because it doesn't react to clicks!!!!!

I tried with a new Eclipse installation but got the same results. The problem is with the trail dialog. So you may replicate the problem by installing Myeclipse 5.1 trial. Then I don't know the days needed to get the comming expiration reminder, but when that moment happen disable the 5.1 version or install a fresh eclipse copy and then manual install version 5.5 M1. Bingo, you got a bloking problem same way as me :'(

Please help me!!!!!

Greeting.

Hey All,
I am running Ubuntu 6.10, eclipse 3.2, and MyEclipse 5.1. I unzipped the manuall install files to a directory and then added it via the method in the documentation... Help-->Software Updates-->Manage Configuration...ect.

Everything works, however, when I start eclipse from the launcher I created, a popup appears telling me to restart eclipse in order to complete the installation. After eclipse restarts everything is fine. It isnt a huge deal, just a little annoying. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what did you do to solve?

Thanks In Advance,
Matt

I successfully installed myeclipse 4.1.1 to work with eclipse 3.1.2. To launch Myeclipse now, do i have to go to eclipse to start it up? I used to have the Myeclipse icon to start it up when i installed it automatically. Since I ran into issue with auto-install, i had to do it maunally. Please advise !

Thanks.

It seems to install, but when I get to step 7(Step 7
After Eclipse restarts, navigate to the Window > Open Perspective > Other... menu option and click on it. ), MyEclipse does not show a one of the options. The main toolbar shows MyEclipse and when you click on it shows "Subscription Information".

I am running on Windows XP SP2. I installed jdk-1_5_0_14-windows-i586-p.exe, and the eclipse classic 3.3.2 (eclipse-SDK-3.3.2-win32.zip).

Any ideas? This is just the 30 day trial version.

I have decided to start a new thread on this topic....

since you've got this sticky topic here, shouldn't it point to current install info?
Even following the FAQ links, i got to this:
http://www.myeclipseide.com/documentation/quickstarts/install/
which is based on myeclipse 4.1 & eclipse 3.1 -- a bit out of date?
Anything around for eclipse 3.3 & myeclipse 5.5?

...not to mention 7.1 & 3.4.1 ?? what's the point of a sticky topic if you don't keep it up to date??
HELLO?!?!?

Any moderator ever read the sticky thread??? Update on current version please.

Is this thread even valid now?

It's three and a half years later and you're up to version 8.5, which I am trying to install on a Linux box. I downloaded the complete package for linux, myeclipse-8.5.0-linux-gtk-x86.gz, and unziped it, but there doesn't seem to be an installer with it. The unziped version is a binary file, but isn't executable. Did I miss something?
Thanks,
Brian
