Eclipse neon hangs loading org.eclipse.ui.navigator - java

Researching existing answers to problems with eclipse hanging on startup, I have not found anything that seems applicable to my problem. Neither have the responses so far been helpful.
The splash screen appears and seems to be conducting a normal startup process, but when the status message reports
Loading org.eclipse.ui.navigator
all progress halts, apparently forever.
REACTIONS TO ADVICE AND DIAGNOSTICS:
A related question caused me to add -clean to the shortcut. This did not help.
The first actual answer suggested reinstalling Eclipse. This did not help.
The second response suggested that I look at Eclipse log files. The first file suggested was most recently updated May 5, long before the problems started, and the second suggested file did not exist.
Moving the old workspace to a different file name and reinstalling Eclipse again with a brand-new workspace enabled me to launch Eclipse successfully, but if I switch workspaces to the new workspace, it hangs (at the same point).
The problem appears to be loading a plugin named org.eclipse.ui.navigator. There is no such plugin in {workspace}\.metadata\.plugins, in either the old workspace or the new workspace. I don't know why Eclipse is trying to load that nonexistent plugin when it tries to run from the old workspace but not from the new workspace. As far as I can tell I need to find some way to install the navigator plugin in the old workspace (without being able to run Eclipse from that workspace), or somehow tell Eclipse not to try to load it. I have no idea how to do either.
Running Eclipse Neon, on a Win10 machine; Eclipse ran normally as of a few days earlier and only started hanging May 22.

Had the same problem today. It was resolved after removing the following folders from the [workspace]/.metadata/.plugins folder:
org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench.swt
org.eclipse.e4.workbench

Why is Intellij Idea freezing during indexing?

I'm on Manjaro linux using Intellij Idea community 4:2022.1.3-1 and jdk 17 for this project, maven is also present
Intellij always hangs after it starts indexing the jdk, it's responsive for a period of time but if I type anything or open a new menu after it's begun indexing the jdk it will immediately freeze and I have to kill the process.
This behavior started after I began attempting to use the luaj-jse-3.0.2 library. I got it to successfully start by removing this library once but have been unable to replicate this since.
I have tried -
Reinstalling intellij
Installing a different version
Removing the luaj library (only successful once)
Deleting the .idea folder
Running intellij in strace
Waiting for it to resolve
Several combinations of all of the above at once
I'm really at my wits' end on this, anyone know anything?
project github (this is up to date to the project): https://github.com/MorticiaGrey/CompSim
Apparently maven was having an issue with the jar I imported through intellij as a library. On a new project without maven but with the offending jar and code copied and pasted from the original project it worked fine, I also got it to work by deleting the old project and importing it again from github without building any of the maven stuff and deleting all the maven files
It may have been my fault for configuring something incorrectly somewhere, but I was using the normal method to add a library in intellij so if that's the case whoops I guess

STS on MacOS Error: Cannot find main class (I've tried every solution I can find)

I'm relatively new to programming. I recently installed Spring Tool Suite (the only option I found for the Mac install was for a 64bit version) for Mac on my system, and after installing I created a test project using a java main class to sys out "hello world" to the console. Everything was going swell until I tried to compile and run the program. The console spat back out at me "Error: Cannot find the main class TestApp" (Test App was the name of my main class). I checked it for errors, found none. I thought originally that the project was bad, so I deleted it and created a new project with a similar name. This project returned the same error.
I did some research and found that occasionally the .metadata file for a workspace can be corrupted, so I tried deleting that file, and reopening an STS workspace from the folder to regenerate it. This didn't work, so I tried creating a new file and starting a workspace there, then importing my test project into the new workspace. This also returned the same error.
So then I thought maybe my build path had been corrupted, so I checked and it was pointing to the correct files. I verified that the compiler is working and compiling the run, as the generated bin folder had a binary file in the project had a file in it. I tried I tried deleting the run config and starting over. Still no luck.
I tried project=> Clean, then re-running, then tried deleting the .bin file and re-running, which compiled and created a new binary file, but still returned the same error in the console.
I tried an uninstall and reinstall of STS, deleted all of the folders for my workspaces, and created new folders.
I tried fiddling around in the project libraries to see if any dependencies were missing, and found nothing.
I tried starting a SpringBoot app to see if maybe running Maven for dependencies would help somehow?
Someone suggested it may be an issue with my machine being older, and sure it's old, but it's fully updated, has an i5 processor, 16 gigs ram, and a full TB of storage. I would be really surprised if that were the issue.
These were all of the solutions that I could find, and I may have tried a few other things that I can't remember (I've been at it for the whole day now).
Does anyone have an idea what may be going on here? I'm at that point where punching the computer seems like a possibility. If it is my machine, I know that using the Eclipse IDE with an STS plugin may be more lightweight, but I've heard that the plugin is also kind of a pain to work with. Currently I've just uninstalled STS again, and may try installing again if I can find a new solution to try.
After some further research I came across a way to reconfigure JRE's. I'm not 100% sure of what I did to fix it, but after a full reinstall and new repo folder, I went to configure JRE's when creating a project and set both options to v1.8 . It's working now!

IntelliJ IDEA can no longer run my Gradle run configurations [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
IntelliJ Build Error Context Mismatch
(14 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
One of my IDEA installations has stopped running my Gradle run configurations. The run configuration is for a regular Java app submodule in my project (the module is called "server"), and the run configuration is as simple as it can get:
Gradle Project: /path/to/server/build.gradle
Tasks: run
No VM arguments, tool windows or any other configuration.
When I run it, I get this:
with no other output. It is not failing on my other machines that are running the same version of IDEA against the same checkout of the same source repository.
I am running the latest IDEA for OS X, 3.5. I tried downgrading to 3.4, by deleting my 3.5 app and installing 3.4 from scratch, and I got the same error running my configuration.
I have tried (many times) invalidating the caches and removing the out/ directory. When everything is recreated, I get the same error.
I've tried deleting the run configuration and recreating it. Same error.
I've tried creating different Gradle run configurations for other submodules in my project. Same error when I try to run them.
I can switch into any of my submodules and type "gradle run", and they run just fine. It's only in IDEA that they can no longer run.
Update: I edited my run configuration, switched to the Logs tab, and enabled "Save console output to file", sending it to /tmp/idea.txt, and got this error:
The newly created daemon process has a different context than expected.
It won't be possible to reconnect to this daemon. Context mismatch:
Java home is different.
Wanted: DefaultDaemonContext[uid=null,javaHome=/Applications/IntelliJ IDEA CE.app/Contents/jdk/Contents/Home,daemonRegistryDir=/Users/user3562927/.gradle/daemon,pid=52404,idleTimeout=null,daemonOpts=-XX:MaxPermSize=256m,-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError,-Xmx1024m,-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8,-Duser.country=US,-Duser.language=en,-Duser.variant]
Actual: DefaultDaemonContext[uid=ec6aa2e2-e5c9-4857-b08b-1e79fa37a332,javaHome=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_121.jdk/Contents/Home,daemonRegistryDir=/Users/user3562927/.gradle/daemon,pid=53135,idleTimeout=60000,daemonOpts=-XX:MaxPermSize=256m,-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError,-Xmx1024m,-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8,-Duser.country=US,-Duser.language=en,-Duser.variant]
Not sure why IDEA is not able to show me this information in the "4: Run" pane.
At least I know this is JDK-related now. I've tried updating my JDK in my project structure, and various other remedies suggested on this site, with no luck yet, but I'll keep trying.
I deleted all JVMs on my machine and painstakingly switched my project and module SDKs all over to the sole remaining JDK. No luck.
Then I noticed this little icon in the upper-left corner of the Run pane, which, when clicked, gave me the build output:
It looks like there are garbage characters in my JVM spec. The only place it is defined is in ~/.gradle/gradle.properties, so I deleted that file (even though there were no garbage characters in it). After that I'm back to the "The newly created daemon process has a different context" error.
After trying many many other things, I finally deleted my project's .idea directory and recreated it. This finally made the problem go away.
JetBrains really needs to get a handle on this problem. I had to recreate my dictionaries, my code style settings, etc. The IDE should be handling the presence of multiple JDKs without choking like this.

Eclipse get hang after some time with error of java

I am using Eclipse Juno for android development purpose.
I am working on the project contain 4-5 library in it. Do know what is the reason but after several use of that same project My Eclipse get hang. Another thing is it only get hang while i am trying to run the app from eclipse.
After that my Eclipse get stop working and in Not Responding condition. When i click on that, I got below message by closing of Eclipse.
Message:
I don't know what is the reason for causing of this. Please help me regarding this issue.
It is because of a corrupted workspace. For, solution refer
this
The error was due to a corrupt workspace. As I disable the workspace check in the startup I couldn’t select another workspace since Eclipse wouldn’t start. Rename the workspace e.g. to “workspace1″. Eclipse will start and create a new uncorrupted workspace and work without any problems. Afterwards you can import your project into your new workspace and in the end remove the old corrupted workspace.
So, you have to create a new workspace
The most common reason I've seen Eclipse crash is due to running out of memory. Try editing the eclipse.ini file in your Eclipse installation directory, and changing the part where it says -Xmx512m to -Xmx1g (or 2g, if you have a lot of free memory on your system). You can also increase -Xms40m to -Xms512m or similar to make Eclipse start with more allocated memory initially.
Close your project from eclipse and try again. If it doesn't work, copy your projects into a new workspace and open them from there

Eclipse is freezing itself before getting started

I've been trying to open Eclipse to start my work today, and it freezes everytime during load.
My Eclipse is Helios. Someone told me I should remove a file called .lock from .metadata folder, but still didn't work.
Does anyone have any idea of how do I "melt" this thing up?
ps: I opened it yesterday with no problems.
Have you already tried to start Eclipse with a -clean parameter? Sometimes this can resolve some issues..
I would suggest a (big) problem with a plugin in Eclipse.. because project plugins or runtimes will execute later.
Create a new workspace and repimport your projects from your old workspace. If you have a vcs, you can re-checkout them.
Start it with the -clean option.
It should take a bit longer (depends on your eclipse configuration and workspace, but if nothing is really broken, it will get it to work).
I believe something is wrong with your workspace. I typically remove current and create new one in such case. It usually takes up to 5 minutes (if I have to add 20 projects). In most cases it takes less.
I have experienced something similar when launching Eclipse after having to force close it for some reason.
If it always hangs when loading the SVN plugin — like in your screenshot — it is likely to be related to that. In this case I suggest the following:
back up your current workspace
launch Eclipse with the -data command line argument to specify a different workspace folder
if Eclipse starts up successfully, try to import your projects from the original workspace or even better from SVN
