Fresh eclipse install, does not work:

Tried with Release Build: 4.32 and 4.33M1

Looks similar to https://github.com/eclipse-wildwebdeveloper/wildwebdeveloper/issues/1558

Try installing JustJ into your Eclipse IDE to get full and better control on the version of Java that it's using to run.

Thanks for your comment. What do you mean exactly with "installing JustJ into your Eclipse IDE"? I literally just extracted the .tar.gz, run it from there and then tried to install Wild Developer via the update site. I thought Eclipse would bundle its own Java?

I literally just extracted the .tar.gz

Which .tar.gz do you have in mind here?

I thought Eclipse would bundle its own Java?

It depends on the .tar.gz ;)

These: https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/R-4.32-202406010610/ https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/S-4.33M1-202407041800/ https://download.eclipse.org/wildwebdeveloper/releases/latest/

PS: I worked around the issue by using the "Eclipse for PHP developers" version, where it works OOTB. But I prefer bare bones Eclipse and I guess (hope) the dependency conflict is not intentional.

OK, so these do not include their own JRE. I would recommend that you install the bundled JRE from https://download.eclipse.org/justj/jres/latest/ , these should then allow you to install Wild Web Developer without trouble.

[saddy001]

Ok thanks. It may be a good idea to mention that in the installation instructions (I mean in the head section of) e.g. https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.wildwebdeveloper

Since I have a workaround I don't want test it, but I guess its just adding justj in Eclipse in then it works. If this is the case, ticket can be closed.
