    Sorry about the vague topic. I can't summarize the problem shortly.

    So I just installed Eclipse (with PHP) 3.6. Then I got Pydev installed by adding a new site with the http://pydev.org/updates. All seemed to go perfectly.

    However! When I go to Preferences->Pydev, I get this error: "Unable to create the selected preference page.
    Bad version number in .class file"

    This happens for any preference on the left having to do with Pydev.

    Also, if I try to New Project>Pydev>Pydev Project>Next, I get this error: "The selected wizard could not be started.
    Plug-in org.python.pydev was unable to load class org.python.pydev.ui.wizards.project.PythonProjectWizard.
    Bad version number in .class file"

    So Pydev appears not to work for me at all. What is the problem here?

    Thanks!

    Oh, OS X 10.5, Java VM 1.5, Python 2.6, I do not have Jython installed or whatever (I'm not using it—I don't even know what it is). No Django. Build id: 20100617-1415 (Eclipse for PHP Developers)

    The problem is that pydev was not retroweaved properly to work with java 1.4 and 5 (as it's compiled with java 6).

    I've just pushed a new build fixing that, so, if you update to the latest it should work again (it's still version 1.6.2 as the only change was in the build process).

    Another option would be using a java 6 vm.

    Cheers,

    Fabio

    Thank you very much. Will this break the next time Pydev is updated, or was this a bug that is now fixed for future upgrades?

    As I'm too lazy, I've fixed it so that it works in all future upgrades and I don't have to fix it over and over again :)

    (it was a bug introduced in the process of adding the Django templates editor to the build process)

    Cheers,

    My attempt to install Aptana PyDev for Eclipse plug-in using Aptana Studio within Eclipse
    fails with following message  :-(   :

    Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
      Software being installed: PyDev Django Templates Editor 1.6.2.2010090812 (org.python.pydev.django_templates.feature.feature.group 1.6.2.2010090812)

    HP Pavilion a1129n Media Center PC with 3400+ AMD Athlon 64 Processor and 1.5 GigaBytes RAM

    Seems like "adding the Django templates editor to the build process" isn't fully fixed yet.  ;-)

    Actually, if you get the latest Aptana Studio 3 versions, pydev (and the django templates editor) is already distributed with it (so, you shouldn't need to update pydev separately).

    Cheers,
