[maemo-developers] [pymaemo] Pluthon: Cannot launch application: String index out of range: -1

[From: Glauber Ferreira]

Hi Andrea.

At step 2 you have chosen this workspace

*/home/andy80/documenti/sviluppo/*maemo

At step 5 you have chosen this location for project Pluthon1

*/home/andy80/documenti/sviluppo/*Pluthon1

and this location for project PluthonTest3

*/home/andy80/documenti/sviluppo/*Pluthon

Both locations are not into workspace directory (they are not into maemo
directory). Is it correct? Are you trying to create both projects outside of
workspace directory? If it is correct, PluThon Project Wizard, on Windows,
works properly and has created both projects at these locations. I will test
it on Linux.

However, if you are testing inside workspace directory (with these
locations: /home/andy80/documenti/sviluppo/maemo/Pluthon1 and
/home/andy80/documenti/sviluppo/maemo/Pluthon), it is not possible to change
the project name. In fact, this will only work for project Pluthon1, since
the default location are being used. This will not work for project
PluthonTest3 since project name has been changed.

This is a convention of Eclipse Wizards. Since the PluThon Project Wizard
are following this convention the same errors occur.

What about the exception "String index out of range: -1"? Have you got this
exception again?
