mindmap won't run [message #54227]

Have gotten to the end of the mindmap tutorial but can't get it to work.
I've followed everything and it all seems to have worked fine.

I then goto Run|Run.. and create a new Eclpise application and don't
change any settings. Then within th new workbench I goto the examples part
and there is the Mindmap Diagram icon, I highlight it and click Next,
within the next window is a heading for Create Mindmap Diagram, printed
under it is 'The folder is empty' witheverything else blank.

Do I need some kind of specific plug-ins for this to work? XML plug-ins or
something so the new workbench can set up properly?

Checked error logs and nothing.

The only other optoin within exanples is ecore, which clicking on has the
same results.

Please help.

To check completeness of your environment, get to the third tab, "Plug-ins"
in the launch configuration (Run->Run...) and hit "Validatge plug-in set".
Though I doubt that's the reason. You can try to find out specific cause
with debug, e.g. start with MindmapNewDiagramWizard#performFinish method.
