--- Comment #4 from Pedro LamarĂ£o pedro.lamarao@gmail.com --- If I do this:
rm -rf ~/.eclipse ~/workspace eclipse -data ~/workspace
then I get the same result. Eclipse shows the splash screen then terminates with a failure dialog box saying a log file was generated.
If I insist:
eclipse -data ~/workspace eclipse -data ~/workspace2
nothing changes.
Experimenting some more, if I do this:
rm -rf ~/.eclipse ~/workspace eclipse -data ~/workspace eclipse -clean -data ~/workspace
then at last I get Eclipse to start with everything apparently normal.
From this point onwards I can do:
eclipse -data ~/workspace eclipse -data ~/workspace2
with no problems.
