HANA Studio (Eclipse with ABAP Plugins installed)

Former Member — Mon, 06 Feb 2017 12:50:16 GMT

I downloaded and installed Eclipse.

In Eclipse I installed the ABAP Development Tools.

Unfortunately I can not open Info Obects. When trying I get the following Exception:

How can it be fixed?

Hello Thorsten,

I just had the same problem. After a downgrade of the BW Modeling Tools Version 1.17.4 to 1.15.6 I can now create, open and edit InfoObjects again.

Best regards

Stefan

Stefan,

Thanks

Usually Eclipse allows to got back to the previous state of the IDE. So you can do at least one "downgrade" using the Installation History.

http://help.eclipse.org/neon/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/tasks/tasks-123.htm?resultof=%22%69%6e%73%74%61%6c%6c%61%74%69%6f%6e%22%20%22%69%6e%73%74%61%6c%22%20%22%68%69%73%74%6f%72%79%22%20%22%68%69%73%74%6f%72%69%22%20

This does not solve the origianl problem, but hopefully provides a temporary workaround.

Best Regards

Felix

Hi Thorsten,

which version of the ABAP and BW Tools did you use when you got the error?

Where did you get these versions from (Service Marketplace or Update Site)?

Regards, Felix

If I remember correctly then :

The cause for the issue was with the Eclipse installation.

Eclipse was installed in the user directory. The username was a long name.

This resulted in missing directory and or files due to path names too long

Install Eclipse (HANA Studio) in the path C:\ (Windows root directory)
