When i try to compile netbeans projects i get this message/error :
"Please wait - classpath scanning in progress..."
and nothing happens , its like you have have to wait for enternity to conmpile "hello world"...
Now the first thing is that we have moved to a new office building, but the laptop is the same. It's a very secure enviroment with a lot of "security", can't connect anywhere almost.
Also i have changed the user dir in netbeans.conf to save my data in c:\Program Files\User
Any ideas how to fix this?
alrady tried reinstalling netbeans, changing save location between standart and newone...
Just some ideas to find the problem
Look at the CPU - is netbeans busy (100% on one core) or blocking (95% idle)?
Standard, ant or maven build? Where are your libraries and do you use absolute or relative paths?
Start with a simple "hello world" project (no dependencies), then add one lib (log4j or something similiar), located in a project folder and - if this works - move that lib to other locations (choose locations similiar to the libs on the real classpath)
There is a chance, that you don't have access rights to the folders/shares that contain your libraries. Or, as you mentioned security, that some virus scanner blocks access to some highly dangerous libs...
I deleted all the files under the .netbeans/7.0/modules directory. Although I lost some configurations of the IDE, it started to work pretty fine.
http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqWhatIsUserdir
I followed Andreas-d advise... after disabling the antivirus and restarting netbeans everything is back to normal.
This seems interesting issue as per you have specified ! Somewhere, the netbeans documentation writes that the issue has already been resolved. However, for your information please have a look on : Scanning Project Classpaths takes too long
This link may or may not be helpful to you. But, the discussion may provide chance to resolve it.
Thank you.
In my case, when adding JavaFX libraries in my project: properties >> libraries >> Compiler Tab >> Classpath option, I have accidentally added my root user (C:\users\paulo) along with the JavaFX jar files. That was making NetBeans to scan basically my whole harddisk. The solution was very simple: just to go back there in properties >> libraries >> Compiler Tab >> Classpath option >> Edit button and deleted that "c:\users\paulo" and almost immediately the scanning processes went away.

I'm trying to figure out which files to check in to version control when using Eclipse for Android development. I have a workspace with a single project. I found this which suggested that the .metadata folder did not need to be controlled (minus the comment there about launch params, however I don't mind re-picking those again on a different machine).
If I remove the .metadata folder then open Eclipse the project is no longer shown. I searched for posts on this symptom and they suggest re-importing the project. This solution doesn't make sense here, I'm trying to check in whatever is needed so another developer can open the workspace and see the project and work on it. Having them move the project then re-import it would be a bit messy.
So which files should I be version controlling so that someone else can get the latest and be able to open the project without controlling a bunch of user specific preferences?
I have had similar experience using Eclipse for version control, and decided to quit using it because it is very annoying and buggy. Now, for git, I use SourceTree, which I prefer over eclipse version control. I think you should version control the source code folders, along with configurations, and other files you program needs to function, but never the executable files. If the other person is using Eclipse, for easiness, it is good idea to include the .classpath configuration file. If not, then the other person would need to clone the repository and make the required changes so that it works with his/her IDE.
I think I've settled on the following approach. This seems to work well so far and avoids some of the headaches mentioned in my original question.
1) each developer creates an Eclipse workspace on their machine somewhere, outside of version control; only the project directory is checked into version control - the workspace is completely uncontrolled
2) developers checkout the project directory from version control (in a different directory structure than where the workspace was created) and then use File >> Import, but they leave the "copy into workspace" unchecked.
So with the above, you can checkout from version control and work with the files right where they were checked out. There's no need to move them out then import them back in. When you import with the copy option unchecked, the workspace (which itself is not controlled) is just referencing the files where they're at on disk.
The only minor downside is that any workspace stuff has to be setup individually. Other articles mention controlling the launch params, but so far this hasn't been an issue - pretty easy to pick that once the first time you launch.
So anyway, hopefully this helps someone else :) This seems to be a reasonably smooth way to do it and avoids the issues we ran into initially.
I am having trouble setting up the build path of my java project. I am currently in a Co-Op IT position so I am somewhat new to all this. My background is mostly in C++ and I am learning java on the fly. I am also somewhat new to Eclipse (Kepler service release 1).
I am working on a bug on an existing program and need to get the program to build so I can work on it. When I add all of the external .jar files that I know for a fact are the right ones, I am getting this error on two of them :
"Archive for required library: '(location of file)' cannot be read or is not a valid ZIP file"
Two of the other full time guys on my team have gotten the program to run with those exact same .jar files, one running Eclipse Indigo and the other running the same Kepler version as myself. I also was able to open the two .jar files manually and everything appears to be there. After every trial trying to fix this, I have refreshed, cleaned and restarted eclipse. The two other full time guys said they have never seen this error. I would like to get some insight on this from anyone who has any similar experiences so that I don't have to use up much more of their time.
I Had this issue, just fixed by deleting .jar files from Libs directory then copy->paste original Jars again. Then do a complete clean -> rebuild
I got this problem, took help from following link solution
which basically says to
1. delete the corresponding maven download folder
2. maven>update project in eclipse
In my case I deleted hibernate folder, since i was getting error related to hibernate-validator.jar
I had the same error here. What I did to resolve the problem was close and reopen the project.
I got the same problem and found out the root cause is the JDK in my linux shell is set to 1.6, but in the eclipse, the JRE is 1.7.
Using Eclipse without m2e features (Standard Edition) helped me.
Similar problem with Spring toolsuite
Just came across this link that shows a way to get unblocked.
In preferences dialog box go to
Java->Compiler->Building
and change Incomplete build path to "Warning" (from default "Error")
This can be done globally (for all projects), or on a project by project basis.
Check the jar's file permissions/ownership.
I had the same issue on eclipse installed on Linux and fixed it by setting the file permissions right.
In my case ..worked after removing this from spirngrest-servlet.xml file.
<prop key="net.sf.ehcache.configurationResourceName">/Sysehcache.xml</prop>
I think it had to do with default location of maven repository of jar files.
Been at it for 3 days. finally solved it.Hope it helps anyone.Just look for similar think in your spirngrest-servlet.xml file. Good luck.
I just tried the following and it worked:
Close eclipse as there might be some files eclipse is accessing and you won't be able to delete.
Delete all the libraries installed in the maven repositories folder: ".m2/repository"
Open eclipse and update your project(Alt+F5).
What did we just do? : This is possible that the existing libraries in the local repository are erroneous and maven tries to open which it fails in. We have now deleted the already existing library and with the project update, Maven will download the library again which should resolve the issue.
i fixed this by just deleting everything inside of the /Users/username/.m2/repository folder. not the repository folder itself. and then running a mvn clean package in the project folder
Today I came to work, happy. But when I opened my Eclipse, I saw that one of my projects has errors.It's weird because it shows that it has errors only in the window bar, and not in the Navigator. I don't have any Java errors, this is a valid project that was fine all the time:
Some of the errors on the error log of Eclipse:
JavaBuilder handling ImageBuilderInternalException while building: SP_Procedure
Cannot connect to VM
File <SomeFile> has been skipped, problem while reading ('Resource is out of sync with the file system')
Unhandled event loop exception
Internal error
When I run an application from this project, I get a warning message but when I proceed, it works fine, but still. It's very disturbing and I'm not sure if it's harmless.
I tried to:
Restart Eclipse
Restart my machine
Clean projects and recompiling them.
Refresh projects
Pray
Nothing helped. What could be the problem? (I'm using Indigo Service Release 2)
The following nuclear option has desperation written all over it. But I have been where the OP has been with the Juno version of Eclipse.
Run a "Synchronize with Repository" and save all of your local updates to a different directory.
Delete the project. (Check the box to delete the contents on disk. Scary step, but that's OK, because you saved it in a different directory in the previous step, right?)
Read in a fresh project from the repository. It builds happily at this point.
Integrate your local updates.
Keep on praying.
Looks that one unused JAR was deleted, but for some reason, I didn't get errors in any file, even in the files that imports this JAR! So what I did was restoring this JAR, delete unused imports and deleted the JAR again.
I've found this error after two days of navigating on this project on each file.. This is weird that Eclipse didn't recognize that1 this is an error, and throw many unrelated errors such as:
Cannot connect to VM
File has been skipped, problem while reading ('Resource is out of sync with the file system')
Unhandled event loop exception
Is this a bug in Eclipse? (All errors and warnings are enabled!)
1 As seen in the image in the question..
A class from the list of imports for the file seems to have moved out or the jar file containing the class is missing.
Expand the imports section and check if you find some classes that are missing but have been imported.
Though it is a pain, sometimes the easiest solution is to back up all your projects (either in a repository or somewhere else on your computer) then uninstall and reinstall eclipse. No it's not fun, but it should reset eclipse so everything works again. The downfall though is that you have to reconfigure eclipse to any special settings you had/reinatall any extra functionality currently installed (eg. android add-on) and reconnect to any repositories you have. While punting isn't fun, it can be effective... I hope you don't have to resort to this though.
I have went through that problem a lot of times, and tried everything you tried. Rebuild, recompile, refresh, remove and add JDK, remove and reinstall Eclipse... nothing worked
The only thing I concluded is that the workspace metadata was corrupted.
What I did (every time it happened) was
Create an empty workspace
Import -> existing projects into worskpace
Mark the "copy projects" (else it will only link them)
Wait for the copy, and start working with the new workspace
If you work with SCM systems (Git, SVN, etc), making a full checkout will do the trick too, but the worskpace import will let you retrieve those changes you didn't get to commit (if any).
It's a little painful if you have somethings already set (like JDK names, servers, etc), but then I realized it was faster than keep searching how to fix the workspace
Regards!
PS : I've been working with Kepler lately, and everything works fine till now
Click Window -> Show View -> Other -> General -> Problems
This view will show you what is wrong.
Did you, by any chance, update your virtual machine outside of Eclipse? I can't help but feel that we're both missing a finer detail here. I just keep seeing "cannot connect to VM" and thinking that it's a major clue.
Have you tried running anything from the terminal? Does it work there?
If so, do you know where your current edition of Java is located? Is Eclipse looking somewhere else?
Is this exclusive to one project? Do you use any additional libraries to the JDK?
Maybe try this for Resource is out of sync with the file system error:
Right click project in Eclipse Package Explorer
Close Project.
Right click project in Eclipse Package Explorer
Open Project.
Other things not mentioned:
project properties > java build path, see if any of those tabs got changed, local file got moved? read/write permissions on some file you are linking to?
project properties > java compiler, see if workplace settings have changed? maybe under errors/warnings, you can systematically set them to 'ignore' until the error goes away to determine what type of error it is?
maybe update some of the eclipse plugins?
I saw something like this happening for a number of reasons. Mainly because of validation in files other Java source code. See if you are validating XML for instance.
Right click your project and chose Properties (Alt+Enter) and Validation to see the related configuration.
As for the danger, I lived with those marks for ages and nothing wrong ever happened.
I'm a bit new to Java / Processing and I opened up a project/workspace with the following errors:
is missing required library: '/Applications/Processing.app/Contents/Resources/Java/libraries/javamail/smtp.jar'
/javamail/dsn.jar
/javamail/mailapi.jar
/javamail/pop3.jar
I have the Processing app installed, but it's been a while...do I just need to upgrade processing or is there another place I need to go to get these .jar files?
I'm using Eclipse and there seems to be quite a list of referenced jar files (some broken)
It's telling you that there used to be a library at
/Applications/Processing.app/Contents/Resources/Java/libraries/javamail/smtp.jar
but it's no longer there, or possibly you opened a project that somebody else edited on a different machine where things were laid out differently.
Open the project build-path dialog and make sure all the libraries point to the correct locations.
If the problem still persist, try doing clean and build in eclipse. It might help.
OMG - what is going on with Eclipse (3.3 Europa) - has anyone come accross this problem (bearing in mind I have been messing about with uninstalling different Tomat containers and installing others - but anyway thats another story)
When I change a line of code or remove a class within my project - when I come to debug - it actually goes to a line that is commented out and runs that line regardless!!!! e.g.
//System.out.println("you should not be able to read this!");
UPDATE: This can be solved by setting Project -> Build Automatically (see answer below).
REMAINING PROBLEM:
Eclipse is not keeping my hot deploy folder current with the latest changes to my project:
I found out to my horror that some old remenants of my project are 'hanging around' in the folder that I think Eclipse uses for hot deploys or something
C:\myJavaCode.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\wtpwebapps\myWebApp
basically it is not actually copying accross any changes made in the classes of my working dir!?!??
...anyway - in order to keep my project up to date - I have to modify this folder too - TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE - as you can't develop in this way - it would take you eons! Anyway, if anyone can help explain to me what stupid thing I have done to get me in this mess and how I can get out of this mess - I would really appreciate it.
Have a look at:
Windows>Preferences>Server>Launching...
and:
Project>Build Automatically
maybe you accidentally disabled the auto-deploy features.
I had a similar problem, only without the added complexities of a web app. I'm just running a JUnit test and it's running the old code. I went into Configure Build Path, on the bottom of the Source tab, and looked at Default Output Folder, which said myproject/bin. The Package Explorer doesn't even show a bin folder, but when looking at the file system there's a bin folder there. I deleted the bin folder, refreshed the package explorer tree, and it worked. This behavior was in Helios and occurred with AND without Build Automatically selected...looks like a bug to me.

A super-silly question: Does all your webproject and related projects compile correctly?
Also check your output folder for classes (Project Properties -> Java Build Path -> Source Tab) then go to your filesystem and check permissions and modification dates.
Hope this will help you.
Probably the easiest way to get past this is to define a new server.
Right-click in the Servers window and select New, or when you do 'Run On Server' select Manually define a new server. You can have multiple servers defined using the same Tomcat runtime (they'll all have separate configs and deployment directories defined by -Dcatalina.base=...), but don't run them at the same time unless you change the ports they're listening on.
The new server will use a path like
<<yourEclipseWorkspace>>\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp1
for the Tomcat conf and webapps directory.
Try running on this server. If it works, you can compare settings with the old one,
maybe try deleting the app from it and re-deploying, and figure out what you might have done to cause the problem. Or just delete the original server config.
As far as your second problem, I'm not sure. I'd try a new server config first, get it working, stop the server, do a 'Clean' on your project, delete anything in the tmp1\work\Catalina directory, and restart the server (you could remove and add your project to the server again too to be really clean).
Check the console messages too to make sure there were no errors related to this.
