Description Igor Fedorenko CLA 2011-03-13 09:49:49 EDT 
I was installing m2e 0.13.0.201103121705 on fresh 3.7M5 "classic" distribution. After installation was complete, eclipse restart failed and the following exception appeared in .log. Starting Eclipse manually did work after that.

Comment 1 Paul Tatavu CLA 2011-03-14 16:07:42 EDT 
I have tried the following m2e versions + eclipse classic 3.7M5:
0.13.0.201103111502
0.13.0.201103121705
0.13.0.201103132105
0.13.0.201103141010
and I could not reproduce the problem.

I also tried m2e 0.13.0.201103141010 + eclipse classic 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 and could not reproduce it either.
Comment 2 Paul Tatavu CLA 2011-03-14 16:19:33 EDT 
Cannot reproduce
Comment 3 Igor Fedorenko CLA 2011-03-17 14:43:10 EDT 
I just had this problem on a different system (macosx this time) and I simply wanted to start Eclipse this time, i.e. no prio installation before the failure.

From looking at DataArea.assertLocationInitialized and LogPlugin.configureLogback, here is what I believe happens

After the user select workspace location both o.e.m2e.logback.configuration and o.e.resources bundles attempt to access org.eclipse.core.internal.runtime.Activator.getConfigurationLocation() from two separate threads. Implementation of Activator.getConfigurationLocation (below) is not properly synchronized, so one of the two threads gets null reference. o.e.m2e.logback.configuration handles this case gracefully, but o.e.resources fails


	public Location getConfigurationLocation() {
		if (configLocationTracker == null) {
			Filter filter = null;
			try {
				filter = bundleContext.createFilter(Location.CONFIGURATION_FILTER);
			} catch (InvalidSyntaxException e) {
				// should not happen
			}
			configLocationTracker = new ServiceTracker(bundleContext, filter, null);
			configLocationTracker.open();
		}
		return (Location) configLocationTracker.getService();
	}
Comment 4 Paul Tatavu CLA 2011-03-18 11:04:43 EDT 
Changed the LogPlugin initialization to wait for the org.eclipse.core.resources plugin to be active.
