Starting Gnowsis = Starting From Eclipse = The !SemanticDesktop project should have added a launch configuration to your launch menu. When you click the drop-down box near the '''play''' button, you see these launch configs. Use these launchs: * SemanticDesktopBootstrap (start gnowsis) - start the system * SemanticDesktopBootstrap (configure workspace) - tell the system which services to start and which not. '''When the launch configs don't show up in menu or in 'run...' options:''' go into the 'navigator view', browse to the !SemanticDesktop - project and double-click the '*.launch' files there (at least one or two). This magically solves the hickup of eclipse and it behaves well. Seems that eclipse that notes "oh, there is a file". This seems to be a bug: eclipse loses some of its launch configs. The launch configs are there, don't question that.
