Eclemma: Invalid Input Url Error in Eclipse

Question

After starting Eclipe I see the following error message in the workspace/.metadata/.log

!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.runtime 4 0 2017-09-18 09:38:48.275 
!MESSAGE Invalid input url:platform:/plugin/com.mountainminds.eclemma.ui/icons/full/eview16/coverage.gif 
!STACK 0 
java.io.IOException: Unable to resolve plug-in "platform:/plugin/com.mountainminds.eclemma.ui/icons/full/eview16/coverage.gif".

The message does not go away even after uninstalling or reinstalling the plugin. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Eclipse: Oxygen 4.7.0
EclEmma: 3.0.0

Answer 1

EclEmma became an Eclipse project and is now part of the Eclipse Java download packages. Due to the move, the plug-ins have been rename: com.mountainminds.eclemma.ui become org.eclipse.eclemma.ui.

If you use a workspace that have been used with EclEmma < 3.0.0 before,

• start Eclipse with the option -clean and
• reset all Java perspectives (coverage.gif is the icon of the Coverage view and could be referenced in the stored window/perspective layout).

Answer 2

This is the image the error is referring to.

Put it in the proper installation path on your machine and you'd be fine.
