--- Comment #1 from Alexander Kurtakov akurtako@redhat.com --- Would you please tell us which eclipse version do you have exactly? I assume Fedora rpms but need your confirmation. Also do you install webtools from rpm or from update site? What is the error you see? Please attach the log file.

--- Comment #4 from Mat Booth mat.booth@redhat.com --- Hmm, it looks like you are using webtools from Neon update site instead of RPMs?
Can you try instead to use the RPMs?
It may need to move your "~/.eclipse" directory to disable any plugins downloaded from the Neon update site, for example:
mv ~/.eclipse ~/.eclipse.old su -c 'dnf install eclipse-webtools*'

--- Comment #5 from Diamantis Karagkiaouris diamantis.karagkiaouris.dev@gmail.com --- It seems to be working now when i installed rpms eclipse-webtools*, but it should be possible to install plugins from marketplace or other repositories. Also when i download the Neon from the project site, everything seems to be working out of the box.

--- Comment #6 from Diamantis Karagkiaouris diamantis.karagkiaouris.dev@gmail.com --- Also something that come up recently is that the eclipse ui suffers from missing webkitgtk3. I think that it must be in eclipse dependencies. I use XFCE and it wasn't installed by default

If the RPMs are working for you, I will close this bug. In most cases installing plugins from the market place or third party repo does work, but sometimes it's necessary for us to add patches to a plugin, which is why we prefer users to use the RPM versions of a plugin (when one exists) with the RPM version of Eclipse.
