Problem with XML DataSource

rsoika

Hi,
I try to build a report form a XML Data Source using Eclipse Indego (on Ubuntu/Linux) - Birt Plugin Version 3.7.1.

I can connect to the XML Datasource which comes from a URL with basic authentification.
In the 'Edit data Set' Dialog I can successful navigate through the schema.
I also can 'Preview Results'. Everything seems to work fine.

Next I try to build a simple report layout with one datatable. I can bind my data set to the table.

No errors - everything seems still to work fine.
But when I click on the 'Preview', Birt Report Designer asks for my username/passwort to access the XML URL and I can see a 'progress bar'. In the next moment Eclipse cashes completely :-(

Did anybody know this bug? Is there any solution

Thanks for any help

After all it seems to have nothing to do with the XML Data Set.
When I start a new empty report with an empty template and click on 'Preview', Eclipse crashes immediately :-(

It seems similar to this posting:
http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/forum/index.php/topic/22743-birt-designer-crashes-when-prevewingrunning-in-embedded-web-browser/

But also starting Elcipse with the option
-vmargs -Dorg.jboss.tools.vpe.loadxulrunner=false
did not help

I found a workaround to solve the problem with the eclipse crash.

I changed the Preview Preference of the 'Report Design' to 'Always use external browsers'
Then when I use the Menu action 'Run->View Report->in Web View' I can see the preview in my OS Browser and Eclipse stays alive
