Can't run GWT-Apps out of Eclipse with Linux

[paedubucher]

Hello

I'm trying to run GWT-apps on a Linux GTK environment. I use the
latest GWT-version (1.33), the latest Java 6 build and eclipse 3.2 on
a Ubuntu Linux (6.10).
GWT is "installed" into "/opt/gwt".

If I create an application and call my Main-shell, I recieve the
following stack-trace:

[ERROR] The browser widget class could not be instantiated
org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles [Unknown Mozilla path
(MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME not set)]

at com.google.gwt.dev.GWTShell.main(GWTShell.java:303)

And the following error:

[ERROR] Unable to open new window for startup URL: http://localhost:8888/Main/Main.html

The development shell opens of course, but the hosted browser denies
to appear.
Very strange, so I tried to run this under Eclipse. The hosted browser
appers, but any Java-code would be executed (see screenshot:
http://home.datacomm.ch/paedubucher/div/gwt.png). The button from the
hello world sample doesn't appear. If i copy the URL http://localhost:8888/Main/Main.html
into firefox, the whole thing works and the button appears!

Has anybody an idea what the problem could be?

Thank you!

PS: Sorry for my english ;-)

Hello!

This is the result of a system configuration problem.  There are several possible causes.

If you search this Group's archives for "no more handles" you'll find several threads that discuss this problem and possible fixes.

Hope that helps!

I have fixed now the problem with the starting ou of the shell by
adding the following lines to my .bashrc-file:

export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME='/opt/gwt/mozilla-1.7.12/'
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH':'$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME

But I can't still start this out of eclipse.

Do you have an idea for that issue?

Thanks!

Hello!

Starting it from Eclipse may not set those environment variables.  It may help to set them before running Eclipse itself.  This usually happens if you log out completely and log back in, and then restart Eclipse.

Have you tried that yet?

Hi

Yes, i did that! Actually, I restartet the whole system again (may be
a habit from Windows :-D).

But in Eclipse, the issue seems to be a different one, because the
hosted browser starts without any problems (even before my .bashrc-
hack) but the Java-code won't be executed (the button doesn't appear,
see my screenshot: http://home.datacomm.ch/paedubucher/div/gwt.png).

I recieve this warning in my eclipse-console:

06.04.2007 19:01:23 java.util.prefs.FileSystemPreferences$7 run
WARNUNG: Prefs file removed in background /home/
paedubucher/.java/.userPrefs/com/google/gwt/dev/shell/prefs.xml

Do I have to add some parameters to the run configuration?
