    I apologize if this has been posted before, but could not find a close question/answer to this.

    I have issues with MyEclipse 10 for Spring when I try to launch it and I have no Internet connection. There are quite a few times when I am traveling and in an area where there is not a free WiFi hotspot around and I am trying to get some work done on a project – but I can’t since MyEclipse crashes on startup and gives me a dialog box pointing to a log file.

    A copy of the logfile when this happens follows below:

    I am running MyEclipse for Spring 10 on a Early 2011 15″ MacBook Pro, 16 GB RAM, OS X 10.8.4, Java 1.6.0_51.

    I had this happen with earlier versions of OS X 10.8.x and 10.7.x.

    What I really need to know is how can I start the IDE when I have no network connectivity?

    Thanks in advance,
    Derek

    Derek,

    Sorry that you are seeing this issue. This looks like a JVM issue on Mac OSX.

    There is a report of similar issue on STS. Can you please check if the workaround helps fix the issue for you ?

    Sorry this took so long, but I ended up switching to NetBeans in order to finish up the release I was working on. Now since that phase is over and things have settled down, I had time to actually try this.

    Found a solution in a link from the URL you suggested:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7892609/inetaddress-getlocalhost-resolution-on-osx-lion-when-offline

    But I have to enter the alias each time that I happen to be disconnected from the Internet and need to startup MyEclipse on my Mac. I’m sure I’ll figure out a better way when I have some time, so for now I just put it into a shell script.

    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
