At work we are using Eclipse Java EE Indigo Service Release 2 (build id: 20120216-1857) and I'm having some difficulty with my package explorer. It seems like it's drilled into a mysterious "resources" directory and I cannot do anything to get out of it and see my packages. I've had to switch to using Project Explorer for some time but I just prefer Package Explorer. Can anyone assist with this? I've included an image:

Stuck in resources

I've attempted to link with Editor, reset perspectives, close and re-open perspectives, but nothing changes. I haven't tried re-installing but I'd really like to avoid having to do this.

Any suggestions?

  • Do the logs in the workspace folder show anything potentially related? Or some "pid" files in the Eclipse installation folder? – SantiBailors Apr 04 '17 at 17:27
  • There are complaints about: `Links indexer could not remove old database files and has disabled itself. Please close this program, remove the directory C:\dev\trunk\.metadata\.plugins\com.ibm.etools.references, and restart this program again.` I did so and restarted Eclipse and it seemed to satisfy the error, but no solution to my issue – Mike Henke Apr 04 '17 at 17:54
  • Googling "Eclipse Package Explorer empty" shows f.ex. [this](http://stackoverflow.com/q/13992661/2814308) and other. Maybe it helps. You could also try to create a new workspace. – SantiBailors Apr 04 '17 at 18:23
