Jeff,
I am now having problems getting myecilpse installed.
Are there any errors when installing ME? Can you send us the error log that you are getting?
Is there an update to the myeclipse 8.6 installer?
Since you are using an installer, the update to 8.6 might not be available. After you have installed ME, please verify the build id and version with those given below –
Version: 8.6
Build id: 8.6-20100806
If the build id does not match, Go to Help > MyEclipse Configuration Center > Software tab, the new update should be available under Software Updates Available.
Let me know if that helps.
