Force.com IDE experiencing multiple issues

Dear all,

I had to have my laptop re-built this week so I've had to re-install Eclipse and the Force.com IDE plug-in. I'm suddenly finding multiple problems:
  • Project Credentials keep getting forgotten, so projects won't refresh
  • Project Refreshes keep erroring with long java looking error messages
  • I can't save my work, I get the error "Unable to open Apex Code Editor - Reason: null argument:"
I've also experienced issues since the move to the tooling API in version 31, but those existed before the re-install, so I don't know if they'd be related.

Is anybody else experiencing problems?

With thanks,
Andy

Hi,

I had similar issues, and what solve them for me was to update my Java version to the latest. After the update everything works ok. 

Hope it help.

Cheers,
Carolina.

Carolina - that worked! I updated from JDK7 to JDK 8 and that seems to have fixed my Saving issue and others.
