problems ubuntu 8.10

[Giusto Gervasutti]

I have installed and configured the plugin as described on the webpage in eclipse 3.2.2, but when I open a file associated to vim, then I get following printout on the console:
Trying to start vim                   
Started vim                           
Waiting to connect to vim server…     
Waiting to connect to vim server…     
Waiting to connect to vim server…     
Server started and listening          
Waiting to connect to vim server…     
Waiting to connect to vim server…     
Waiting to connect to vim server…     
...

I have also tried to download a newer version of eclipse, but the problem remains the same. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards!
