Eclipse on Mac OS X – Workspace error on NFS mounts

Friday, March 26th, 2010 | Eclipse, Mac OS X | 13 Comments

If you are using Eclipse on Mac OS X and experience a “Workspace in use or cannot be created, choose a different one” after moving your workspace to a NFS share, try running eclipse with these arguments:

./eclipse -vmargs -Dosgi.locking=java.io

or you may add this line to your /Application/eclipse/Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/eclipse.ini file:

-Dosgi.locking=java.io
