I am cross posting here but I have been corresponding with the MyEclipse developers as well. That post should be here: http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-30292-sid-4f46afe5d75a1d5cf72ddf9350ab734e.html. If not, go to the MyEclipse Support forum and search for "Liferay IDE issues in ME 2014".

The basics are that there are some incompatibilities between MyEclipse and LR IDE plugin. Only the 1.6.2 version will install (a Sapphire incompatibility exists with 2.1) and when I do have it installed, I can no longer get the migrated LR projects to build. What follows is the most relevant part of the post (but reading the whole thing wouldn't hurt):

"There have been no changes to the Liferay SDK installations. Both the SDK and the Tomcat installations are exactly the same. In fact, the workspace in ME10 still references those SDK's/Tomcat install and all is well with them.

I have installed the 1.6.2 version of the Liferay IDE plugin.

In this second installation (since I removed the earlier one inadvertently) I installed from the myeclipse-pro-2014-GA-offline-installer-windows.exe file downloaded from your site. When that install completed, I installed the Liferay IDE from the sourceforge site (as an archive - liferay-ide-eclipse-updatesite-1.6.2.zip ) I restarted ME after the plugin installed. I created a test portlet in a new workspace and all is well so I switched back to the workspace that had the migrated projects in it and none of those project will build or deploy. New projects are fine, existing projects that were migrated are the problem.

The only thing I noticed is that the migrated source has multiple project errors. Most notably, it can't seem to locate the package com.liferay.util.service which would indicate a build path issue. Yet, I see no errors in the build path settings in the migrated projects. The new projects I create have a library included called "Liferay Portlet Plugin API". In the migrated projects I do not see this library listed, I only see an entry of "com.liferay.ide.eclipse.server.plugin.container/portlet". When I remove this entry and select the "Liferay Portlet Plugin API" library entry it returns the same reference as before - "com.liferay.ide.eclipse.server.plugin.container/portlet" rather than the Library.

Not sure what is going on. Somehow the migration is not bringing something across correctly. I will post over at the LR forum but I am going to guess that they will say it is a migration issue with ME2014 and you folks will say that it is an issue with the Liferay IDE plugin.... "

I am going to try to install the GF and Tomcat bundles in a different location and see if I can import the projects. I suspect that there is some issue with the SDK / server bundles (it has always been weird that I cannot create a Liferay Portal runtime for Glassfish instead I have one for Tomcat but build the projects located in the Portal SDK in the GF instance)... I think that is where the issue is but I can't be sure.

Suggestions?
