I also faced similar problem and ran eclipse from CMD -> c:\eclipse\eclipse.exe -clean and it solved my problem.

I had the same problem with Eclipse Mars 2. Fixed that by installing the version 4.0 of EGit from here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/FAQ#Where_can_I_find_older_releases_of_EGit.3F

Answer 4

Had the same problem in Eclipse Luna

Looking into the error log, I found:

org.eclipse.egit.ui
Error

FrameworkEvent ERROR

org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.eclipse.egit.ui [844]
Bundle was not resolved because of a uses contraint violation.

Starting eclipse with the -clean command line option fixed the problem for me.

Answer 5

Checking the log file of eclipse could always helps you to address this kind of problems.

I also had the same problem with Eclipse Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2), I fixed the problem by downgrade the version of EGit from 4.0.1 to 3.7.1.

Answer 6

I fixed this by running Eclipse as root user and installing the plugins again. Then I ran Eclipse under my normal user account and it was fine - everything showed up.
