Corrupted app appears.

After launching Eclipse EE and IDE a duplicate icon appears in applications, users click on this by mistake and it won't launch. I have edited the names of the apps to differentiate between EE and IDE, these seem to work fine. Attached is an image of what I am seeing.

This looks like a duplicate. 
Could you please take a look at Bug 492658, and tell if it is the same? 


Waiting for your feedback to mark as duplicate. 

Thanks and regards.

You probably launched Eclipse.app before renaming it to Eclipse-EE and Eclipse-IDE, and you execute some operation that hardcoded the "/Eclipse.app" dir in some file. 
 
I guess you have 1+ file referencing "/Eclipse.app" in Eclipse EE or Eclipse IDE 

To find those files, open terminal into the Content folder of both the Installations and type: 

$ grep -lr "/Eclipse.app" ./

Then, check with files are referencing "/Eclipse.app".

Symptoms are the same as Bug 492658: empty Eclipse.app. 
Probably the cause is the same: some file that references "Eclipse.app", a location that does not exists anymore.
