.... I've just started eclipse/aptana and was again prompted to download and install an update, but this time it worked without producing the error.

I have now updated to Aptana Version: 1.1.12.009184_200803190051.

Very strange that I should keep having these sproradic issues as nothing has changed with my configuration.


Bill Lazar - 18/Aug/08 12:33 PM
Dan, does your last comment mean this issue went away?

Dan Humphrey - 19/Aug/08 05:02 AM
Hi Bill,

Sorry I wasn't clear - Yes it's gone away, or it's currently working anyway - referring to the previous bug (2025) I don't think the issue ever went away, it just seems that it only occurs from time to time.

I have the same Eclipse/Aptana install/config as in the previous bug - I pretty much install my dev environment, configure it and leave it alone apart from installing Aptana updates when prompted to do so.

When I raised this issue on 15th (2158) I had not had a problem since July (issue 2025) - It occured for a day and a half each time I started Eclipse and attempted to install the Aptana updates that I was prompted with (4 or 5 times over 2 days), then without changing anything at my end I started Eclipse on Saturday evening and the Aptana updates installed successfully without showing the 'Resulting configuration does not contain the platform' error.

Does this help?


Bill Lazar - 20/Aug/08 07:13 PM
Dan, please reopen this ticket and attach your error log file if the problem occurs again (though hopefully it won't, of course).

Dan Humphrey - 27/Aug/08 05:01 AM
I just started Eclipse/Aptana after using it evey day without error since my last post, however.

I was prompted to Install an Aptana Studio Professional upgrade (1.1.12.009184_200803190051) and am given the error: Resulting configuration does not contain the platform.

I'm going to attach a screenshot to this issue.


Dan Humphrey - 27/Aug/08 05:16 AM
screenshot -1 shows the error that occured at startup when I was automatically prompted to download an update.

screenshot-2 (not sure why there are 3 copies) shows the error that occured after cancelling the original update window and attempting to manually obtain the update via Help>Software Updates>FInd and Install


Bill Lazar - 27/Aug/08 04:39 PM
We retested this.

Bill Lazar - 27/Aug/08 05:33 PM
Please restart Eclipse using the Clean Configuration choice on the Help | Aptana Troubleshooting menu and see if this problem clears. If it doesn't, you will probably need to update to a newer rev of Eclipse 3.3.

Dan Humphrey - 27/Aug/08 11:12 PM
I always try -clean when I have Aptana issues - I'm afraid it makes no difference.

Bill, Are you saying that Aptana doesn't work with the Europa build of Eclipse? Can you please advice me which version/build does work.

Thanks,

Dan


Bill Lazar - 28/Aug/08 11:10 AM
I'm not saying that, I am saying that there are newer versions of 3.3 (at least I found 3.3.3, there may be more) and you should update to the latest 3.3 release.

Dan Humphrey - 28/Aug/08 09:12 PM
I would try 3.3.3 if I could find it. The eclipse downloads page shows the following:

Latest Releases
Build Name Build Date
3.4 Tue, 17 Jun 2008 – 20:00 (-0400)
3.3.2 Thu, 21 Feb 2008 – 18:00 (-0500)
3.3.1.1

I already have the 3.3.2 and I don't believe Aptana works well with 3.4 yet (please correct me if I'm wrong).

You may as well close this issue then if you can't reproduce or provide a fix.

It's a real shame because Aptana has the potential to be a great IDE for JS development but I just find it far too unstable for a product that I've paid for.

Thanks anyway.


Bill Lazar - 28/Aug/08 09:33 PM
We do have user working well on 3.4, though you must use the Classic Installer and not p2. The reason I didn't suggest it previously is because it's a more significant effort and change for you, not because we don't support it.
