Hi all,
Has anyone faced an issue that when you create the message set (mset) file, there are no properties or details displayed...the whole page is blank..
I thought the issue was the version and went ahead and updated the toolkit to whatever fixpacks are available as of date..current version shows 6.0.2.
The problem is there for perfectly working message sets imported, or ones created in the toolkit...
Any ideas ?
Regards.

Yes, I've seen it too.
I don't have an explanation or a fix - it only occurred in one machine for someone who didn't really need it fixed. My suspicion has been that it's an improperly installed toolkit.
Try the usual tricks with eclipse - start up with -clean, delete .metadata or create a new workspace (don't forget project interchange for exporting and importing all your projects).
Try increasing the java heap to the Toolkit.
If that doesn't work... try re-installing.

Hi Jeff,
Creating a new workspace worked, though I did not like the solution 
Thanks.
Regards. |

Project Interchange Format is very good for just this situation. Export everything in your workspace into a PIF zip file. Delete .metadata. Restart the toolkit pointing at the same workspace - no projects. Import the PIF - all your projects are back and happy.

I believe we are having the same problem. When opening the mset file, it shows up with empty areas. (All I see is a box for hierarchy and to the right of that a section for details, but nothing else shows). However, the message sets do work fine.
I tried creating a new workspace. I also tried that PIF tip. Neither worked. Any other suggestions?
Thanks. |

start up with -clean.
add more memory to the Java heap.
Reinstall the Toolkit...
Open a PMR...

I saw this problem too, but for me switching the perspectives or just restarting the Toolkit fixed the problem. It happened many times for me.
I guess this happens if our workspace goes very bigger..

Try this, close all your perspectives and then reopen the perspectives.. |

-Xmx nnnnM -Xms ppppM , where nnnn > pppp > 256

Yes, I tried following settings in wmbt.ini/wid.ini files to reduce the restarting of my WMB & WID Toolkits number of times, which is working fine. But this didn't fixed message set problem.

VMArgs=-Xmaxf0.3

VMArgs=-Xminf0.2
; Set minimum heap to 512mb to reduce GCs (may be too high, depending on other processes running). Default was 128mb.
VMArgs=-Xms512m
; Enable part of GC to run concurrently, instead of locking up the process.

Hi all,
There is a saying in my native language "Vellakan peratiye paand aayi" which would mean something like "I applied a faireness cream and ended up getting a blotch"...
I got the mset problem fixed, and tried importing back all my clearcase projects...and now I find that the fix pack adds new lines into the .project files, which is un-acceptable as the rest of the developers and the servers are still on the earlier version of the broker...
So I tried to revert back on the fixpack, and thats not possible now...So end of story, I need to reinstall the toolkit... 
Regards. |
