[news.eclipse.tools] Re: Eclipse will not run

If it's like me, there is no .log file.  I am having the same behavior --
Win 2k JDK 1.4.1, spash screen that never does anything.

If I say "...\eclipse -ws c:\eclipse" or something liek that I at least get
a dialog box saying something like "errors during startup, look in
.metdata/.log in your workspace", but there is no .log file in any workspace
that I can find.
