when I start my STS (3.5.1.RELEASE) it takes about 5 Minutes to startup. On the splashscreen I can see "loading org.springsource.ide.eclipse.dashboard.ui"

I've allready disabled the Option "Show Dasboad on Startup".

Does anyone has an idea?

Even my colleagues have the same problem.

Best regards, Peter

  • I am seeing the same issue on 3.6.0. I am behind a (pretty lousy) proxy, using the Active Provider as "Native" to pick up my system's proxy settings. Disabling the dashboard doesn't seem to help, and neither does removing all the feeds. – Eric Aug 07 '14 at 19:57

This is a known issue in STS up to version 3.6.0. This will be fixed in 3.6.1. See https://issuetracker.springsource.com/browse/STS-3861

I guess this is related to a network issue, I experienced a similar behavior in situations where my network access was problematic. Are you behind a firewall and/or proxy? And did you configure that in the Eclipse network preferences?

If the issue is with loading org.springsource.ide.eclipse.dashboard.ui,simply delete(take backup before delete) \stsWorkspace.metadata.plugins\org.springsource.ide.eclipse.dashboard.ui folder.

If this doesn't resolve your isue then delete sts-3.8.1.RELEASE\plugins\org.springsource.ide.eclipse.dashboard.ui_3.8.1-RELEASE.jar.

It works for me.

PS note : It will not load dashboard while loading workspace.

The following is what worked for me.
When STS got stuck, opened IE, Tools --> Internet Options --> Connections --> LAN settings --> unchecked all proxy settings.
Then killed STS session from Task Manager and opened it again. And this time it did not get stuck.
Then I went back into IE to fix the proxy settings.
