[buckminster-dev] Re: Problems getting started with Headless Buckminster 
Hi Thomas,

Did you have any luck following this recipe to reproduce the problem?

Kind Regards,

Hi Thomas,

Everything in Buckminster is build on 3.2.1, not 3.2.0 so I don't think your problems are caused by a version conflict. I think you might be missing something else that causes the org.eclipse.jdt.debug to fail. Perhaps Buckminster has some inconsistency in the way the interdependencies between the features are setup. Can you provide a list of exactly what features you installed? I'd like to try and recreate your problem locally.
Here is a precise reproduction recipe from before Buckminster is even installed, until hitting the problem mentioned previously.
The same problem occurs on both Windows and Linux. This recipe uses Windows to reproduce. 

Please see my additional comments at the end of this email.

1. Install JDK 1.5.0_09

C:\>java -version
java version "1.5.0_09"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_09-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_09-b03, mixed mode, sharing)

2. Unzip buckminster.product-1.0.0.v20061005.zip into C:\

C:\>dir buckminster
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 6011-047D

 Directory of C:\buckminster

3. Bootstrap Buckminster binary

C:\buckminster>_productinitializer.exe initialize


4. Update PATH environment variable

Add C:\buckminster to PATH environment variable

C:\>buckminster
No command provided. Try one of:
  buckminster --help

UNEXPECTED:  Headless SVN plug-in is not registering readerType extension.
I suspect that the plug-ins are not resolving properly during "buckminster getcfg" in the same way that they do not resolve properly during "buckminster listsite".
If we can resolve "buckminster listsite" to behave the same as "buckminster listsite C:\buckminster", then hopefully the "buckminster getcfg" issue would also be resolved.
How does buckminster determine the implicit target platform location for "buckminster listsite" ? 

Many thanks for helping us to figure this out. :)

Kind Regards,
John Fallows.
