Fix
new File(URL.getFile()) is incorrect, since it discard the hostname which is essential in a UNC path. The fix is to use our URIUtil helper methods. Fix released. Cool. I've added some content to http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse/UNC_Paths with concrete suggestions for using URIUtil, based on what I've learnt through these recent UNC bugs. Your review of my changes would be appreciated. In general, I feel like that Wiki page could use more practical advice and a bit less theory, in order to be less confusing. |
1) Unzip Eclipse SDK into a new directory 2) Under properties for the folder, Deny "Write" permission under the security tab 3) Under properties for the install folder, select "Sharing" 4) Select "Share this folder". Give the shared folder a name ("shared") 5) In Explorer type in the address bar \\<yourhostname>\shared\eclipse 6) Double-click eclipse.exe 7) When the IDE comes up, try to install something Error occurs: !ENTRY org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui 4 0 2010-05-05 15:22:31.218 !MESSAGE Profile id _SELF_ is not registered. !STACK 0 java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Profile id _SELF_ is not registered. at org.eclipse.equinox.internal.provisional.p2.director.ProfileChangeRequest.createByProfileId(ProfileChangeRequest.java:49) at org.eclipse.equinox.p2.operations.InstallOperation.computeProfileChangeRequest(InstallOperation.java:68) at org.eclipse.equinox.p2.operations.ProfileChangeOperation.makeResolveJob(ProfileChangeOperation.java:158) at org.eclipse.equinox.p2.operations.ProfileChangeOperation.resolveModal(ProfileChangeOperation.java:113) at org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.ui.dialogs.ProvisioningOperationWizard$1.run(ProvisioningOperationWizard.java:206) at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext$ModalContextThread.run(ModalContext.java:121)
