Description Thomas .

2011-05-24 03:50:32 EDT

Build Identifier: M20110210-1200

Did a clean install of Eclipse Helios SR2, CDT, PTP and some others.
File -> New -> Remote C/C++ Project
Entered a project name, selected "Remote Tools" provider, created a new connection.
Tried to select a project location with the "Browse" button, an "Opening connection..." window appeared, disappeared and nothing else happened.

I found the following message in the "Error Log":

From now on, the "Browse" button doesn't do anything at all.

After restarting Eclipse the above behaviour can be reproduced.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

What happens when you run the following command?

	ssh <remote_host> "/bin/sh -c 'echo `id -un`:`id -u`:`id -G`'"
	
It seems like you system may not have the "id" command. I've added a fix to ptp_5_0 and HEAD to address the NumberFormatException (should be available in 5.0.1), but I'm not sure what other problems it may cause.

Closing as fixed in 5.0
