Hi Juerg, It would help, if you can try testing the latest SNAPSHOT as outlined in https://sling.apache.org/documentation/development/ide-tooling.html#update-site-installation (there is a p2 update site at https://nightlies.apache.org/sling/eclipse/) The upcoming version has lots of issues fixed (including compatibility with newer Eclipse versions): https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/SLING/versions/12342835
Let us know if you encounter issues not yet reported Thanks, Konrad > On 20.
