Description José Carlos Araujo dos Santos CLA 2020-04-23 20:25:10 EDT 
At the startup the following message appears:

An internal error occurred during: "Task List Indexer".
java.nio.channels.OverlappingFileLockException

I Am using Eclipse IDE for Java Developers with a javaWorkspace in the "Google Drive File Stream" at g: drive. Eclipse is installed in the c: driver, if this matters.

How to solve it?

The Task List Indexer is part of the Mylyn Tasks project.

Either way, it's recommended not to put your entire workspace on a network drive, or
to manage it with file synchronization. You'll get terrible performance and file
locking issues like you're encountering.
