I have just installed Eclipse 3.0.2 on Fedora RC2, and cannot execute
ant build files. I am using j2sdk1.4.2_06.

Error messages I am getting are:

1. In response to Run | External Tools | build-file
Referenced class path provider does not exist:
org.eclipse.ant.ui.AntClasspathProvider

2. In response to Run | External Tools...
Exception occurred creating launch configuration tabs

Reason:
No tab group defined for launch configuration type
org.eclipse.ant.AntLaunchConfigurationType

What must I do to enable support for ant ?

Bill.

You should not have to do anything special to get your Ant support working.
This appears to be https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=60278
(You have a corrupted Eclipse registry...see comment #2)

Darin, Thanks.
I have accidentally tried to re-use the workspace, so this
could be the problem. However, when I looked for .registry
to delete, I could not find dir .config or file .registry
on my system. Hoping it helps, a listing of the top dir in my
eclipse 3.0.2 installation follows:

[root@local eclipse]# pwd
/usr/local/share/eclipse
[root@local eclipse]# ls -al
total 116
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 May 22 10:31 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 May 19 23:22 ..
drwxrwxr-x 7 root root 4096 May 20 23:49 configuration
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 15049 Mar 11 07:18 cpl-v10.html
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 27178 Mar 11 07:18 eclipse
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 59 Mar 11 07:18 .eclipseproduct
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 May 20 23:20 features
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 10489 Mar 11 07:18 icon.xpm
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 4096 May 20 22:46 links
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 5810 Mar 11 07:18 notice.html
drwxr-xr-x 86 root root 4096 May 20 23:20 plugins
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 11 07:18 readme
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 19465 Mar 11 07:18 startup.jar
[root@local eclipse]#

Im a bit reluctant to re-install eclipse, since I've
downloaded a few of my purchased plugins already. However,
I may have to do that if another workaround is not available.

Bill.

FWIW: I have another workaround.
1. Started eclipse with the -clean option and was able to execute
my build file without problems.
2. Then I started another copy of eclipse (without the -clean option),
which said 'workspace in use, etc'. Exited out of the 2nd copy.
3. First copy still able to run my build file.
4. Restarted eclipse (without -clean) which can still run my build.

Conclusion: it probably was not an attempt to run two copies of
eclipse on the same workspace that caused my problem, but -clean
can get me past it.
