Description John Tromp

My IBMJava2-13 installation resides in /opt which is a symbolic link to /data/opt,
where /data is another partition mounted at boot time. Somehow, eclipse is unable
to resolve this link when I start a new java project and reports
Illegal library path. I can circumvent the problem by specifying the /data/opt
path, but it really should work with the symbolic link.

Which build are you running and which platform (Linux?) ?

David - once we get the new Linux machines, can you give it a try to see if you 
can reproduce it ?
