Build Identifier: 3.6 SR1 (Helios) I have updated the Helios 3.6 installation to 3.6 SR1 and restarted the workspace. However Eclipse did not start, after checking the log in the Eclipse configuration folder the following stack trace is shown. !ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2010-09-25 20:12:34.049 !MESSAGE Application error !STACK 1 java.lang.RuntimeException: Application "org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" could not be found in the registry.

By the way. The select workspace dialog is not even shown. An error dialog "An error has occured" comes right away after starting Helios. This happened right after I have run the updater to SR1...
What Helios package did you have installed - Java EE, Modeling, etc? How did you upgrade? Did you upgrade via Help > Check for Updates, or a manual install of SR1?
This kind of error occurs before choosing the workspace, if it is any consolation, the workspace should be fine. This is a configuration problem with Eclipse itself, it seems that you may be missing some plug-ins in the install. Is "org.eclipse.ui.ide.application" listed in eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info ?
I did have installed Java EE 3.6.0 and upgraded via Help > Check for Updates.
I have realized that the upgraded Eclipse runs fine if I create a new, fresh workspace. I forgot to mention that I am using the 64-bit version of Eclipse. By further investigation I suspect that the Subversive Plugin from Polarion caused this issue. It was installed on Helios 3.6.0. Now running 3.6.1 in a brand-new workspace, I can not install it anymore.

If the Subversive plugin is incompatible with 3.6.1, the installer shouldn't have attempted an upgrade that would break the install. I see you are on Windows 7. By any chance did you have Eclipse installed somewhere under C:\Program Files? This triggers a shared install mode in Eclipse that behaves a bit differently.
(In reply to comment #6) No Eclipse has been installed in a different folder than c:\Program Files.
I have not been able to reproduce this.
