It only happens when the files are assigned to the PHP editor or content type; I can compare non-PHP files successfully. The bug also happens in the Compare views launched by CVS and Subclipse. It doesn't seem to matter whether the files are in a PDT project or not. This is a huge problem -- please take a look. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select two PHP files. 2. Choose Compare With > Each Other. 3. Compare window appears, with no content.
Windows version is also affected!
It also not works when comparing the local revision and the latest revision from a repository (at least in SVN). It opens the result window but it is gray and empty.
it was fixed, we will release an update soon.
(In reply to comment #3) > it was fixed, we will release an update soon. Hi, has this fix been released? I'm using this version on OS X 10.6.4 Eclipse for PHP Developers Version: Helios Service Release 1 Build id: 20100917-0705 Subclipse: 1.6.13 The compare editor will not initialise from the 'Team Synchronizing' view or from the right-click 'Compare With > Latest from Repository'. I've uploaded the stack trace: http://pastebin.com/u7anqYHJ
Can the fix be released sooner rather than later? It's rather annoying. Is there a workaround in the meantime? Thanks
Verified by QA. Fix should be present in next release.
Thanks. When will that be? It's a very annoying issue which would justify some some bug fix release. Any way to get a build somewhere?
Hate to bug you, but any idea when you'll be releasing an update?
If this has been fixed can you not release a stable patched version prior to the next release? Most developers will find that not having access to the compare editor slows productivity to a crawl. I had to re-install the older Helios (not the SR1 release) and chose not to install the updates to get the compare editor working again.
Yes a release now would be nice really dependent of this function :)=
Please release fix. This is really affecting development.
Yes Please! Had a semi-emergency last night where I realized a team member overwrote a ton of changes in SVN with an older revision. Had to reconcile but couldn't with current release because of this bug. Had to install older version as well. Thanks.
Definitely agree with previous comments. Not being able to use the compare editor for PHP makes PDT (for me) pretty much useless. Any update on when the next release will be available to fix this issue would be *much* appreciated.
Hi, I also would appreciate the bugfix soon.
I have this one under WinXP, under subversive, the same stack trace, please give us update, we can't work on Helios PDT :(
*** Bug 327303 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Sure, you can use this update site that includes the fix: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/2.2/milestones
Thanks. The version on that server doesn't have this problem. But do you know when this fix will be released to the main Helios update site (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios/)? I'd prefer not to have everyone in my company switch to a milestone update site.
Thanks for comment17, life is a lot easier again.
Milestone update works fine on debian as well. Thanks!
(In reply to comment #20) > Milestone update works fine on debian as well. Thanks! It also works fine with Windows/SVN. May a suggest to offer that patch via the regular Helios updates, as PDT can hardly be used within a team without a working compare function?

(In reply to comment #26) > UNDER WINDOWS (W7 professional): I updated my Eclipse (Help > Check for updates > ...) and compare Still does not work. > Help ! Have you added the update site http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/2.2/milestones for PDT which was mentioned by Roy Ganor few comments earlier? If no, go to Help->Install New Software->Available Software Sites(link in right top part of the opened window) then add and enable the link to pdt milestone. At the end do Check for updates. I suppose it will be useful to disable this update site after PDT update to prevent milestone releases updates in future. Sure I you do not want to get them.

I manage to install it from Help->Install New Software and manually selecting the package. Bug was fixed after that.

This bug makes it impossible to use Eclipse for merging changes (using any of the various Source Code Management plugins, e.g. svn, hg) where there are merge conflicts that must be compared and resolved. It's a really important feature that's been broken for at least a month and a half now... see the three new duplicates that have popped up in just the last two days (bug 327754, bug 329232, bug 329778). It's great that it's fixed. Any word on when we can have that fix released?

Nice to know it's fixed, but why this update site is absent from http://www.eclipse.org/pdt/downloads/ ?
I can't get the update and any help is appreciated. Eclipse Installation Details / Features shows: PDT Plug-in 2.2.1.v20100822 I went to Install New Software and added the site http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/2.2/milestones It did not get picked up by Check For Updates. Went back to Install New Software, selected the PDT Milestone link option in Work With. It shows pdt 2.2.1 M201010110334 (with 5 subfolders) I ticked it, clicked Next and got the error: "The operation cannot be completed". Details are: Your original request has been modified. "PHP Development Tools (PDT) Runtime Feature" is already installed, so an update will be performed instead. What can I do to install this update ?

Why not push this fix to the helios update site immediately? By not doing so you're forcing people who relies on this feature over to the milestones update site. It's been like this for more than 2 months now.

I do have the same problem. Only the mylyn feature could be installed. Check for new updates did changes something, but it did not solve the problem. Is there another way to install?

I had the same problem with my installation (Ubuntu 10.10). I've found out, that Eclipse cannot be updated when it was installed in a folder with restricted access rights (e.g. if it was installed as root in /opt/eclipse), so the update/install process cannot overwrite the previously installed version. I've re-installed Eclipse in a folder where I'm the owner (my normal user account has the ownership). Now the update works for me. It should also work if you change the owner of the install folder or modify its access rights (allow write access to it and all sub-folders), but that is not tested.

Why is this *BUG*-fix not made available on the current version, Helios???
Please include this fix in a stable build. It's a major feature and it's been broken for more than a quarter of a year. The milestone builds tend to have other issues...
(In reply to comment #41) I had the problem of "No updates found" when adding the url to the available sites on Windows 7 so I followed these instructions instead "I manage to install it from Help->Install New Software and manually selecting the package. Bug was fixed after that." Which worked. It took a few hours and a reinstall before I found this page.
Which package did you select? I'm having the same problem. I added the milestone site and performed a Check For Updates and received "No Updates Found". I'm also running Windows 7.

Update: Its working for me now. I just manually installed all the PDT packages under the milestone site and it works.

"No updates found" when adding the milestones to the available sites.
Will this fix make its way into Helios SR2? It would seem to have been reported as bug 334251, bug 334251, bug 334680, bug 331186, bug 329232, and bug 330705 as well.
Hello, please reopen this bug, it is not fixed. I experience the same issue, which makes eclipse unusable for synching your dev with SVN, a major IDE feature! I use Eclipse for PHP Developers Version: Helios Service Release 1 Build id: 20100917-0705 Please, reopen and fix in the next update so we can enjoy the full experience again
Alternatively, can someone explain the steps to use the 'bug free' version? Thanks
I agree... this should not be closed/fixed. I work in a lab without internet connectivity and cannot use the milestone workaround mentioned above (and according to another poster, these have their own issues). I've accidentally clobbered other developers' changes several times, and they've clobbered mine. It's untenable. Being able to compare changes against another version is one of the key features of the IDE that developers need. The inability of a product called "PHP Development Tools" to do something as basic as diff on PHP files for almost 5 months is a major problem. Please re-open this bug and get the milestone fix into the main release. The sooner the better! In the meantime, if anyone has a solution that doesn't require connectivity (e.g. a downloadable patch), we'd be VERY grateful! Thank you...

What platform do you need a patch for? I.e. to upgrade from what to what?
(In reply to comment #61) > What platform do you need a patch for? I.e. to upgrade from what to what? I am running the same as matt above: Eclipse for PHP Developers Version: Helios Service Release 1 Build id: 20100917-0705 According to some posters above (see comment #38 and others), they can (from within Eclipse) connect to a site and download an update, but I cannot do this from my development workstation. Is there a way to manually download this update? Thanks...
The correct steps to fix this issue are as follows: 1. Window menu > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites Add http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/2.2/milestones 2. Help > Install new softwares Work with: [ select the new software site from the list ] Check the box to download PDT 3. Wait for download & restart, compare & SVN compare in subclipse now work! but it is strange that such critical bug is NOT ported to the advertised as STABLE download!!
(In reply to comment #63) matt, as I mentioned above, my development workstation is not connected to the internet. It is on a physically separate network. I can't follow those directions because Eclipse can't connect to that site. I need a single, downloadable patch that I can then sneaker-net over to my environment and *then* point Eclipse to. I just tried to mirror this: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/2.2/milestones/ ... on my local hard drive. I downloaded everything from a mirror site--this includes the plugins and features directories and their contents. I unchecked the box "Contact all update sites during install to find required software" since I won't be able to do this on my dev network. The result? I get the same error messages seen by hengeloer in Comment 46. > but it is strange that such critical bug is NOT ported to the advertised as > STABLE download!! Agreed--the fact that this bug is marked "FIXED" when the bug still exists in the main release is confusing. I'm wondering if it hasn't made its way there because the development team thinks it's actually fixed in the stable release? Or will it be included in 3.7 (which doesn't appear to be due for another 4 months)?

My guess is that it will be included with the next major release, since the fix exists in the latest 'milestone' release. It seems the developers are OK with leaving such a critical bug in the "stable" release so as not to vary from the planned release cycle.

I am on Windows 7 and it doesn't work. when I am at step 2, check the the box to download PDT, and Press Next, I get the following error Message: "The Operation cannot be completed.

Hello, following the steps mentioned above I am having trouble installing from the milestone site: (Helios Service Release 1, build id: 20100917-0705, OSX 10.5) An error occurred while uninstalling session context was:(profile=epp.package.php, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Uninstall, operand=[R]org.eclipse.php 2.2.0.v20100410-0300 --> [R]org.eclipse.php 2.2.0.v20101001-2300, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.eclipse.actions.UninstallBundleAction). Error while loading manipulator. Error while loading manipulator. please, please fix this as soon as possible, this is really annoying... thx a lot YT BB
It looks like this fix has finally been released to the Helios update site (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios). I now see three versions of PDT there: PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature 2.2.1.v20101001-2300-53184QAN4JBQgLYPWMLcXn6Na9Od PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature 2.2.1.v20100826-1100-53184QAN4IJShLXONIZhXX4Na9Od PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature 2.2.0.v20100519-1400-53-84QAN2IGRoLXQNHWOXe1La9Od Not sure why there are three, but the first one looks like the version with the fix.
Got the same problem here, cannot update Eclipse PDT release, but found a workaround : - Download latest eclipse classic release : http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-classic-362/heliossr2 - Install PDT addon v2.2.1 using "Install New Software" - Select Helios update site (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios) then use filter "PDT" to display only PDT, and select "PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature" then install Working on Windows 7 x64
