Description Panagiotis Astithas 2005-08-08 17:00:35 UTC 

The eclipse 3.1 port has a small bug that causes the internal browser to fail. The location of the embeddable mozilla browser does not pass from the startup script, to the eclipse executable.

Spotted by: Georg-W. Koltermann

How-To-Repeat: 

- Start eclipse (/usr/local/bin/eclipse). Open Window -> Preferences and find the browser category. See that the internal browser option is greyed. 

- Open the Javadoc view in the Java perspective. Open a simple java program with a String variable and select the String type. Notice the Javadoc information for String in the Javadoc view is displayed in raw text and not formatted HTML.

- Open the log from Help -> About -> Configuration -> Log. Notice error message like the following:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui.browser 2 0 2005-07-30 18:54:56.256
!MESSAGE Internal browser is not available: No more handles [Unknown Mozilla path (MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME not set)]
