Re: [ptp-dev] Respin of epp-parallel package available: RC5

Dave and Greg,

 

I’m fascinated by problems like these because they are so darn strange.  My interpretation of what Dave wrote – which takes some liberties on interpretation, as there are many things not explicitly stated:

 

EPP RC5 build – always fails.

EPP RC5 build + plug in development used to launch new EPP RC5 instance (pretending to be running from source, but with no workspace/source) – works.

Unknown version plugin development + head of CVS (Eclipse launched from source) – works

EPP RC4 build – works (most of the time?)

 

#2 is particularly interesting, as it seems that perturbing the memory environment makes the issue go away (fade in twilight zone music…).

Dave,

 

Just to clarify, when you install RC5 into an existing Eclipse it fails, but EPP works?

 

Which Eclipse package are you using when you install RC5? Did you install RC5 on top of RC4?

I figured I might get a clue why this was failing by installing the plugin development environment plugins into the RC5 EPP package and starting an Eclipse runtime instance. I have no PTP code in the workspace for my runtime instance so should be inheriting everything from my base install. I pointed to the same proxy as before. Running a PE app does not disconnect the proxy at all, everything works fine. Doing the same thing from the base Eclipse fails every single time.

Weird.

I saw this myself once or twice with RC4 and was fine afterwards, but then when I used RC5 I get the disconnect every single time and cannot run anything. If I use a runtime session with the latest source from HEAD it also works fine. I'm not sure why a runtime session works but it appears like code in the RC5 build is slightly different from either RC4 or HEAD, which also doesn't make much sense. I'm not sure how to track this down.

Dave, I think I saw that on my remote testing yesterday afternoon the first time i tried to use your new fixed proxy (with our RC4)
I chalked it up to network idiosyncracies i think and retried and it worked.

I tried to create a remote project and run a PE application. I found 4 problems

1) The first time I started the RC5 Eclipse and created a remote project Eclipse hung completely for about 2 minutes. I think I had right clicked on the executable in my remote project to view properties. I noticed the status in the lower right corner said C/.C++ indexer 0 percent for a long time and after the hang cleared it switched to DStore server

2) I'm getting the following null pointer exception in the C/C++ indexer

java.lang.NullPointerException

at org.eclipse.ptp.internal.rdt.core.index.RemoteIndexLifecycleService.update(RemoteIndexLifecycleService.java:87)

at org.eclipse.ptp.internal.rdt.core.index.RemoteIndexerTask.run(RemoteIndexerTask.java:88)

at org.eclipse.cdt.internal.core.pdom.PDOMIndexerJob.run(PDOMIndexerJob.java:137)

at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:54)

3) I was getting messages when I ran a PE application that looked similar to the build messages we were seeing previously complaining about invalid characters in the command and unexpected EOF in input that I was seeing when my windows environment variables were being passed across to the Linux session. Now I'm not seeing them any more.

4) I start my PE proxy and try to run an application. I always get a proxy disconnected popup. The only change I had between RC4 and RC5 was to eliminate the setting of the MP_RESD=no environment variable setting to fix a problem. I backed that out and nothing changed. I grabbed the lated source from HEAD and ran in an Eclipse runtime session pointing to the same proxy and had no problem. Are there changes in the resource manager code related to PE proxies between RC4 and RC5 or after RC5? Any changes in that area or in the org.eclipse.ptp.proxy or org.eclipse.ptp.utils code lately?


I did attach with gdb to the proxy and it appears the proxy is just exiting normally

Since everybody is reading the cross-projects mailing list (you do, don't you?) you have seen that there is a severe bug 349105 that made it necessary to rebuild the Indigo common repository and as a consequence all EPP packages. See bug 349267 for a general overview of what's going on and how it is coordinated.

I started a new package build in Hudson

https://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/job/indigo.epp-package-build/39/

and its output can be found here

http://build.eclipse.org/technology/epp/epp_build/indigo/download/20110615-0608/

When this build is ready and if it is successful, I will ask for testing and voting once again.
