Re: [ptp-dev] Remote Synchronization Error

[Christopher Navarro <cmnavarr@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John,

I'm not entirely sure if I performed any of those operations on the project, but I don't believe I did. I have primarily been using the shallow project from the tutorial for testing bug fixes for PTP so there is some chance I messed with something that broke the synchronization. I will try to be more mindful while I am working with PTP to see if I can reproduce the chain of events that lead to my lost synchronization.

I originally setup the project by checking it out from SVN as a C project, Empty Makefile (as the 2011 SC Tutorial stated). Then I converted it to a synchronized project with the New > Remote > Convert C/C++ or Fortran Project to a Synchronized project.

Sorry I can't really be more helpful. Most of my bug testing was just running the "shallow" project, not modifying it's source so it wasn't until I tried out Jeff's new environment modules that I started digging into why I couldn't get it to work properly.

Hi Chris

Thanks for the detailed explanation! Could you give more detail about how this project

was created and used prior to receiving the errors? For instance, did you rename or copy

the project, which currently doesn't work (bug 371507). I notice it is part of a tutorial. Does

the same error occur each time or were you doing something different? It will be very helpful

if we can reproduce the error.

For synchronized projects, each build configuration has its own custom service configuration,

which is created from the project's default and not made available to users. Thus, I wouldn't

expect that changing the settings on the Edit Service Configuration page would have any effect,

although you're correct that the sync service should be enabled.

Thanks again

John

While I was trying out Jeff's new Environment Manager page (very cool btw), I ran across the same issue that someone else was seeing, "The currently displayed page contains invalid values". We tracked this down to a null pointer being returned from line 83 of EnvManagerPropertiesPage.class. This was because the isDisabled check for the synchronization service was returning true. I dug deeper and found that in Windows > Preferences > Service Configurations, the project I was having problems showed the synchronization service as disabled, I don't recall ever disabling it. I opened the Edit Service Configuration page, and re-enabled it with "Git Synchronization Service" as the provider. I restarted Eclipse since nothing happened with sync when I tried to force it to synchronize. After I restarted and tried to force it to synchronize again, I got the following error message:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.jobs 4 2 2012-04-19 11:11:51.094
!MESSAGE An internal error occurred during: "Remote Synchronization".
!STACK 0

   at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:54)

My still project build properly on the remote machine (Forge), but any changes to source are not getting propogated. I'm not sure when synchronization broke for the project because it must have worked initially since shallow-mixed contains source errors as part of the tutorial. Any idea what went wrong?

Thanks,
Chris
