    JBoss Tools Beta

    meetoblivion

      Hey

      So I'm posting here on the urging of Jbosstools on Twitter

      At their recommendation I tried the tools one more time. I am using ganymede and have been for a while.

      I'll start with my environment

      HP Pavilion tx 1000 AMD Turion 64 bit processor 2.1 ghz total. 2 gb ram.
      OpenSuSe 11 installed w/ x86_64
      Hotspot JVM (java 6)

      I'm up to date on all patches and in general have no issues with day to day operation on the laptop (though I do seem to find a random codec every now and then that doesn't work properly).

      So here's my issue

      I'm attempting to run JBoss Tools on top of my existing eclipse ganymede install. For VPE, I get the message "The VPE editor can't be run because your system environment needs to be changed slightly." I have verified that compat-libstdc++ is installed:

      $> rpm -qa | grep compat-libstdc
      compat-libstdc++-5.0.7-121.1
      


      I have a feeling it has to do with this error (from Error Log view)
      Bundle org.mozilla.xulrunner.gtk.linux.x86_64 is not found.
      


      So, is there a separate install for XULRunner for x86_64 environments?

      Second, I am working with a seam project. The different scoped beans don't appear properly in the Seam Components folder. No error or anything.

          [VPE]We doesn't support x64 platform's now.

            Try using a 32-bit JDK. You will probably have to download it from the Sun web site and install it yourself. I have done this for my 64-bit Kubuntu and can run either 32-bit or 64-bit JVM. I typically use the 32-bit JVM for running Eclipse.

              I develop, run, and test in an x86_64 environment. The drivers you need are over here:

              http://repository.jboss.org/xulrunner/

              The xpcom one is required, and the appropriate xulrunner is required.

                mareshkau - we have had 64bit builds for Linux for a couple of months now ;)

                rob - the xulrunner binaries are included in the download/update site so should just work.

                PeterJ - using 32-bit will/should work; but I assume the reason meetoblivion is asking is to get a "pure" 64bit environment

                meetoblivion - sorry for not answering before but I was busy at Devoxx and their network prevented me from doing almost any work.

                Which version of JBoss tools have you installed ? Our latest beta at least has a 64bit linux build (http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/release/3.0.0.Beta1/)

                If that still fails it might be a collision of xulrunner 1.9 being installed under you system preventing Xulrunner 1.8 to startup....but lets make sure you got a 64bit build first ;)
