Since a few months, I encountered an annoying error in Aptana Studio and
|
||
|
|
Eclipse 3.7 (the autonomous packages, not the packages from the repositories)
|
||
|
|
whenever I tried to do a git or hg action.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I could live without until now, but today, it was really bothering me.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The error is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< highlight text >}}
|
||
|
|
Unhandled event loop exception
|
||
|
|
No more handles [Unknown Mozilla path (MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME not set)]
|
||
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The log file showed the following backtrace:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

[this](<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1017945/problem-with-aptana-studio-xulrunner-8-1)
|
||
|
|
[problem](http://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#gtk64), it seemed it was enough
|
||
|
|
to give the path to Xulrunner to Aptana.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
On my Arch Linux, it was
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||
|
|
export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/xulrunner-8.0
|
||
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Trying to start Aptana Studio, I had a new error. It simply stated
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< highlight text >}}
|
||
|
|
XPCOM error -2147467261
|
||
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The solution is that Aptana Studio cannot work with the version of Xulrunner
|
||
|
|
in Arch LinuX repositories because it is too recent.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To solve this problem, I had to install xulrunner 1.9.2 from AUR:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||
|
|
yaourt -S xulrunner192
|
||
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The PKGBUILD was broken this morning and ended in a 404 Error when fetching
|
||
|
|
sources. If you have the same problem, `here is an updated PKGBUILD
|
||
|
|
<https://gist.github.com/1486851>`__
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally, I put
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||
|
|
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2
|
||
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
at the end of the `AptanaStudio3.ini` file in the Aptana Studio folder. For
|
||
|
|
the package in the Arch Linux repositories, this file is
|
||
|
|
`/usr/share/aptana/AptanaStudio3.ini`.
