Hi,
eclipse is running on my amd64/opensuse10.1 with 32bit java 1.4.xx without
any problem. but:

Trying to start the eclipse installed with epf-composer, I get a dialogbox
saying:
--------
Eclipse Process Framework Composer cannot be started while another instance
is running. Switch to the running instance or close it and restart the
application again.
--------

Of course, no other instance is running and MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME is set.

Thanks and best regards,
Axel Mueller

I don't use linux much these days, and I have no idea of how the epf
composer runs, but perhaps it's simply a ".lock" (or similar flag) file
that is present from when composer might have crashed before.

Maybe you can look for such files and try to clean them. It's just a
wild guess - hope nobody minds.

No, there's nothing like a lock file. I fear it's a OpenSuse/x86_64 or a
OpenSuse/GTK problem. I hope, that the upcoming 1.0 release of EPF comes as
a plugin and installs on my running eclipse (eclipse-SDK-3.2-linux-gtk).

thanks,

Looks like you have similar case as mentioned here

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=157435

Your options are
1) add "-data <workspace_dir>" to the epf command line. It seems some
platforms don't read the -data from the epf.ini correctly.
OR
2) add "-nolock" to the epf command line - this bypasses the locking
check.


Thanks
