Description Ian Wood CLA 2011-03-02 18:23:41 EST
Build Identifier: 20100917-0705

When I launch eclipse, an unresponsive secure storage password popup appears. I am unable to do anything with eclipse after that.

I believe the only passwords I have in the secure storage are for google code svn access. The project is a google code project with local changes. I'm not sure why eclipse is asking for the secure storage password on launch? 

I have subversive:
   Subversive SVN Team Provider (Incubation)	0.7.9.I20100512-1900	org.eclipse.team.svn.feature.group
  Native JavaHL 1.6 Implementation (Optional)	2.2.2.I20100512-1900	org.polarion.eclipse.team.svn.connector.javahl16.feature.group

By removing ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.equinox.security/secure_storage I am able to use eclipse, but cannot perform an svn commit (authorisation failure).


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch eclipse
2. unresponsive secure storage password popup appears and eclipse freezes
3.

Hello,

I have the same problem.

I use Eclipse Helios M20100909-0800.
I have the same subversive install as Ian Wood.

I think this popup appears only if the History view is visible at the eclipse launch.
I am able to use eclipse again if I remove the file workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.ui.workbench/workbench.xml.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch Eclipse
2. Open the view History and click on the button "Link with editor and selection" 
3. Open a editor on a file "managed" with SVN
4. Close Eclipse
5. Launch Eclipse
6. Unresponsive secure storage password popup appears and eclipse freezes

Regards,

Laurent

I think this problem is fixed in newer versions of Subversive. You should try to get a thread dump when the problem occurs.

Remy,

In fact, the steps listed above (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=338758#c1) to reproduce works now (with my current environment). But sometimes I still freeze at the start of Eclipse. I will try to determine in which context ...

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

Hi,
I no longer concerned with this problem as we now use Git and no longer SVN.
For me, this bug can be closed as "Won't fix".

Laurent
