Workspace and Projects disappeared when turn off VMahine

piero_cory 2017-01-11 08:37:44 UTC #1

I have created a Java workspace and inside I imported the project from the git repository.

Unfortunately when I turn off the virtual machine and restart it, I do not feel more my workspace and my projects have disappeared.

I must do something before turning off the VM to keep my workspace / projects? I have to use the snapshot function?

Many thanks
Piero

Hi again @piero_cory,

The issue seems to be caused by a wrong order in the shutdown of services when the VM is rebooted or halted. The scripts that manage Eclipse Che always check that Docker is running properly but during system shutdown, Docker is stopped before Eclipse Che and this causes the latter to be forcibly killed after a timeout.

As a workaround, if you're using VirtualBox, you may use the "Save the machine state" feature instead of rebooting it. Alternatively, you may log into the VM and stop the services manually before reboot or shutdown by running the following commands:
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop
Hope it helps.

Best regards,
Alvaro Recio

Hello @arecio

I tried the solution you've shown me to stop the service before shutting down the VM with the following command

sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop

Everything now works properly the workspace and projects are maintained and restored at the next reboot.

Thank you have been very kind
Piero
