When u open Window/Preferences then select Validation. Click the button Disable all and that will disable all validation in eclipse.

I have spoken to an platform expert in the mean time, and he said that the 64-bit JDK from sun sucks big time. For that can be confirmed I want to wait on the answers from the ubuntu guys. If the same then I'll replace the JDK with jRockit from BEA and test with that.

Sorry, if I am missing some trivial thing. Once I start eclipse, it crashes before I can even goto menus to disable the Validation. Once I click open work space - it takes me to license agreement and crashes before I even get to menus.

Appreciate any pointers.

I am encountering this as well. Same symptoms, same chain of events, using sun-java-5.
Eclipse simply dies less than one second after displaying the license screen.

Sun's JDK leaves a JVM error log (see attached).

I have tested eclipse with WST and all validators
enabled with JRockit 6 JDK 64-bit and eclipse runs
stable. So it must be the Sun 64bit JDK which causes
the problem.

Now the only thing was that I was not able to launch
my JUnit Tests. Simply refuses, but I will figure that
one out. If anybody else experiences the same with
JRockit please let me know. Give me the signal it is
probably the JDK rather then configuration.

What you can try is to start using a clean workspace.
This will prevent the license agreement to popup.

Same problem here. With gcj-java, there is terminal output:

GC Warning: Repeated allocation of very large block (appr. size 512000):
        May lead to memory leak and poor performance.
GC Warning: Repeated allocation of very large block (appr. size 512000):
        May lead to memory leak and poor performance.

(many lines, for many seconds)

...then a crash. With java-1.5-sun or java-6-sun, an almost instant SIGSEGV.

With gcj-java, the dialog about xsd license is up long enough to read. Crash seems to happen while license is 'loading' -- button to 'disagree' is available but 'agree' button remains disabled.

Ticking WIndow>Preferences>Validators>Suspend all validators does not help.

Switching to a brand-new empty workspace does not help.

Switching to use all of the latest RC1 stuff here:

http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R2.0/S-2.0RC1-200705250432/

(eclipse-SDK-3.3RC1-linux-gtk.tar.gz ; emf-sdo-xsd-SDK-2.3.0RC1.zip ; GEF-SDK-3.3RC1.zip ; dtp-sdk_1.5RC1.zip -- all expanded in the same place)

...allowed the creation of a dynamic web project without a JVM crash.

Quote from the eclipse download site for 3.2.2 x86_64 version:

After Eclipse 3.2.2 was declared, a problem was found in SWT's 64-bit GTK libraries that prevented the Browser widget from working. A fix exists for this problem, and all 64-bit GTK users must install or Eclipse may not start. See bug 174547 (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=174547. A patched feature is available on the 3.2.x update site under "Eclipse 3.2.2 patches".

Problem is eclipse and not JVM, Gordon already pointed this out somewhat.

I have not tested the bugfix, though. But if anybody feels up to it please post your comments with the results.

I'm not sure eclipse bug 174547 is the same thing.

While I'm on an AMD64 processor, I've only installed the i386 Ubuntu, so I don't think 64-bit GTK libraries would come into play.

Also, I can launch Eclipse fine -- it is only the license dialog that pops when starting a dynamic web project that causes the crash.

Unfortunately, I can't test the MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME workaround in that issue because now, apparently as a side-effect of getting things working in the 3.3RC, I can't get *any* WST/JST to install in my 3.2.2 eclipse, even after remove/installing eclipse from apt-get again and moving my old .eclipse/workspace directories away. (It no longer appears at Callisto update site and the version from the WTP update site request prerequisites I can't find.)

I can confirm MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME workaround for 3.2.2 doesn't help.

however, the issue is fixed once I switched to 3.3+WST 2.0.
Since, 3.3 is final, perhaps switching to 3.3 is the quickest workaround.

If you add the parameter wtp.autotest.noninteractive=true to the jvm, no nagscreen will appear and hence no crash!
I had to add it to ~/.eclipse/eclipserc, in VMARGS. Standard eclipse does not seem to pick up settings in eclipse.ini.
