Hi Chuck, I found out what's causing WOLips to Not recognize some of the frameworks. The frameworks that do show up all have the internal structure:
framework -Resource -WebServerResource while the ones that don't show up have a nested /versions/A/... structure: framework -version --A ---Resource ---WebServerResource ---(etc.) having checked the original files on OS X, the frameworks with version/A structure all have a softlink pointing to the resource folders at the root of the framework folder. These softlinks are all gone once I copied the file to Ubuntu, which is probably why WOLips doesn't recognize them. I tried move the Reource and WebserverResource folders back to the root of the framework, now it will show up and work properly inside WOLips. Once I fixed the Java runtime for Eclipse(running java-1.5.0-sun now), and did this for all the frameworks that doesn't showup, WOLips seem to work properly now, I can build and run a sample app without errors. It's strange that I didn't see this mentioned else where, I'll be sure to note it in our documentation at http://stanley.cdf.toronto.edu/drproject/csc49x/webcat Thanks to everyone for the help, this mailing list is very helpful.
