Hi,

I've installed Scala IDE v3.0 on Eclipse 4.2 Juno using http://download.scala-ide.org/sdk/e38/scala210/stable/site (following the Getting Started with the Scala IDE video) however, when I try to open the scala perspective it is unavailable.

What does it mean that the "perspective is unavailable"? Do you get an exception? (if yes, could you provide the details)

-- Mirco

Does anyone know what is or could be wrong? Thanks.

-Ari

Firstly, according to the getting started video, after installation and restart a setup diagnostic dialog is supposed to be displaed -- that did not happen in my case. As for "perspective", if I go to Window > Open Perspective > Other ... I do NOT see scala, which once again as per the getting started video I am supposed to see. There are no exceptions and/or errors whatsoever.

The described symptoms make me say that the Scala IDE plug-in didn't actually get installed.

Try to start over, hopefully things will go fine this time.

Good evening,

I met the same problem on Ubuntu 13.04, Scala IDE v3.1 on Eclipse 3.8.1. I solved it when launched Eclipse as root and reinstalled the plugin..

Your post suggests you are not allowed to install plugins in eclipse without being root.
How is eclipse installed?
I run Scala on Fedora, Debian and windows.
I always "install" eclipse by downloading and simply extracting a zip or tar.gz file to a place somewhere under my home directory.

Hi

Just tried installing eclipse from the Debian distro and succesfully installed the scala-ide plugin,
So sorry, I can't think of the cause of your problem.
I'd suggest: do it all again.

Greetings,

I've installed eclipse from repository

$ sudo apt-get install eclipse

$ dpkg -L eclipse
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/bug
/usr/share/bug/eclipse
/usr/share/bug/eclipse/control
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/eclipse
/usr/share/doc/eclipse/copyright
/usr/share/doc/eclipse/changelog.Debian.gz

It looks like root permission is the only way...
