IppyKez Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I am having problems downloading this file, do you have an alternative download for the ELI files or is this the only one?The problem is, every time I start the download it will only go up to 49% and then freeze. If you have a solution for this please let me know by PM or reply…Kinda lame that I can't download this, without the ELI files I can't use any Eclipse programs at all...

*electriZer* Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Hey,i'd try to start the Eclipse server on Linux with Wine.But the ELI installation fails.Can create a installer specially for the server? =)gez :: *electriZer* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can however run ELI through WINE using winetricks, which I have tested and which works just like the Eclipse Server and the Eclipse Client. However because Linux is not officially supported yet, I'm not writing any tutorial or guides for Linux.Regards, Godlord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I open the installer and it starts downloading, it freezes around half way through.It freezes at the same spot for every download I've tried.But I also might think that this only happens on this computer, because I've downloaded these files before on a different computer… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimimaru Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 It shouldn't really matter. I just ran it, and everything works fine for me. Try running it as an administrator, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
