    Hello,

    I use Eclipse helios, java 6 and I have zero experience with haskell.

    I installed the addin EclipseFP and restarted eclispe but when I try to open the haskell perspective I get:
    "Problems open perspective net.sf.eclipsefp.haskell.ui.HaskellPerspective".

    I tried to install the Haskell Platform but it didn't help.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Check the error log: Window menu -> Show View -> Other… -> General -> Error Log. You should see the error in there along with a stack trace, post it here. A priori nothing to do with Haskell itself, if we can't find haskell tools we will "politely" say so, probably more a Eclipse problem (dependencies, etc).

    Thank you for your reply.

    The error log had a lot of errors, not all related to eclipseFP, so I decided to switch to Juno.

    Now I have managed to get the haskell perspective to open, but I'm a little worried about error messages that showed in the console during the install:

    Compiling Data.Conduit.Text ( Data\Conduit\Text.hs, dist\build\Data\Conduit\Text.o )
    Compiling Data.Conduit.Lazy ( Data\Conduit\Lazy.hs, dist\build\Data\Conduit\Lazy.o )

    scion-browser-0.2.10 depends on persistent-1.0.1.2 which failed to install.

    Anything serious?

    Thanks.

    Er… Not much I can do. You seem to have a problem installing persistent, but it seems to be a network error. Try again, and pray… Hopefully it's just something was wrong with hackage or your network connection was weak in the knees and a second attempt would work better…

    My connection is indeed weak in the knees. I'll try again then.

    Thanks again.
