Build Identifier: M20100909-0800 I have installed the current version of m2eclipse 0.12.1. When i start eclipse, the plugin tries to update an index from a repository. In my local settings.xml i have configured a mirror for all repositories. It is a local tomcat/archiva installation. Sometimes i forget to start tomcat. Then when i try to start eclipse it will hang because m2eclipse gets an IOException. I believe the same bug will apply to a remote repository if you want to start eclipse but are not connected to the internet. I am not sure if this might also affect this bug report: I have JBoss Tools installed. The stack trace says something about jboss.netty classes. I will attach the stack trace. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure a mirror for * in .m2/settings.xml (my mirror is a local tomcat/archiva) 2. Make sure the mirror refuses the connection (shutdown tomcat) 3. start eclipse 4. eclipse will hang with "Initializing Java Tooling 1%" 5. look into workspace/.metadata/.log, the last entry should be "java.io.IOException: Connection refused: no further information" 6. kill eclipse 7. make the mirror available (i would start tomcat) 8. start eclipse 9. everything is fine again

I have to apologize, hopefully nobody else spent time on this. This is not a problem of the m2eclipse plugin. The problem actually grew worse in the last hours. Eventually i deinstalled the JBoss Tools and reinstalled them. Now the problem is gone. Maybe a conflict with the JBoss Maven Integration. I skipped this plugin when i reinstalled the JBoss Tools.
