patch to handle case of inaccessible server log dir none

Description Li Ding CLA 2011-07-13 11:28:37 EDT 
When I tried to connect to a daemon running on AIX I got error saying like "no such folder". It complained that .eclipse folder was not available. It turns out my new id does not have authority to create a folder on the server.

However I think RSE should be able to handle this case by disabling functions which need .eclipse folder.

Xuan, could you please review this path?
Comment 3 David McKnight CLA 2011-07-13 12:41:28 EDT 
Li, does this need to be backported to RSE 3.2.x?
Comment 4 Xuan Chen CLA 2011-07-13 13:01:39 EDT 
The fix looks good.  Thanks.
Comment 5 David McKnight CLA 2011-07-13 13:14:28 EDT 
Thanks for the review, Xuan.  I've committed the change to cvs.  

Li, let me know whether a backport is needed.
Comment 6 Li Ding CLA 2011-07-14 15:27:43 EDT 
Yes, it needs a backport because our product picks up RSE 3.2.2.

I've created bug 352159 for the backport.
