Issue
I am using Eclipse PDT 3.5 on Vista (32 bit). It works, though eclipse needs admin rights to execute. This annoys me, but I accept it.
But: every now and then (I am not sure, it may even be everytime I want to open a project), I get the error message "The project description file (.project) for my project is missing.".
It is NOT missing, it is in the main folder of the project. It has no special flags set (it is not hidden, nor system file, nor write-protected).
This is for ALL projects I have in my list. The only solution I have found so far is to delete the project from eclipse an re-add it. This is somewhat annoying.
What can I do?
EDIT: The workspaces are on a server volume. Can this be the problem? I used Eclipse 3.3 before, and there it was no problem with the server paths. And the server volume is mapped to a drive letter.
Solution
I've found this solution by googling. I have just had this problem and it solved it.
My mistake was to put a project in other location out of the workspace, and share this workspace between several computers, where the paths differ. I learned that, when a project is out of workspace, its location is saved in workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/PROJECTNAME/.location
Deleting .location and reimporting the project into workspace solved the issue.
