How are you trying to import? From a version control system or from a shared file system?
Does the location you are trying to import have a file named ".project" underneath it? So if you are trying to import c:\projects\myProject, is there a file named "c:\projects\myProject\.project"?

Hi Jeff,
Actually i am importing the projects from my local system.For that i am selecting the optoin " Import -> Existing project in to workspace' " here after clicking the browse button i am giving the specified file path. After the file is selected i am getting an error like "SampleProject does not have .project file" where Sample project is my message flow project previously done on windows machine.
Thanks in adavance. |

Okay.
How did you move the projects from Windows to Linux?
Again, does there exist a file called ".project" at the root of the directory you are choosing as the project?
You know you can't import more than one project at a time, right?
So if you moved a folder called "C:\projects\" into a folder called "/home/srinu/projects/" that had ProjectA, ProjectB, ProjectC and ProjectD in it, you can't import "/home/srinu/projects", you have to import "/home/srinu/projects/ProjectA", and etc.

Well, there's nothing different between the strucutre of a project in windows and linux. In fact, I've "shared" a project between both toolkits without any problem...
I don't think you answered Jeff's question about the .project file (remember to do a ls -al in that directory).

what are the permissions on the .project file? ... and ... are ALL the projects failing with "missing .project" file, or only one/some?

Can you cut a paste a "ls -al" from the directory you are tying to import?

Could be a codepage issue?
I have exported files from Windows to Linux in the past, but have then been unable to edit the files in the Linux Eclipse environment until I set the codepage property on the files (or projects) in question to US-ASCII.
Just a thought.
