				Hi Guys, 
 
 
whenever i am opening websphere MQ Series.it's giving an error that 
 
"Unable to read workbench.workbench UI layout will be reset." 
 
 
as soon as i click ok for this error. MQ explorer is opening. 
 
But i am not able to open websphere MQ explorer perspective. other perspective are working fine. 
 
the error in opening Websphere MQ explorer perspective is 
 
"problems opening perspective. com.ibm.mq.explorer.ui.internal.perspective.mqperspective" 
 
i am using MQ v6 and eclipse platform v3. 
 
 
by going to plug in developement perspective i can see the detailed error which are as 
 
1.Invalid Menu Extension (Path is invalid): org.eclipse.jdt.ui.actions.GoToType 
 
2.Invalid Menu Extension (Path is invalid): org.eclipse.jdt.ui.actions.GoToPackage 
 
3.Invalid Menu Extension (Path is invalid): exportJavadoc 
 
 
for these three its showing exception stack trace could not be found. 
 
4.Plug-in com.ibm.mq.explorer.ui was unable to load class com.ibm.mq.explorer.ui.internal.perspective.MQPerspective. 
 
for this error its showing

				a) this would appear to be the wrong forum
 
 
b) it's considered rude to double post _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

				hi Praveen,
 
 
I did got the resolution..
 
 
i have deleted .metadata folder under
 
c:\Documents and Settings\###$user###\Application Data\IBM\MQ Explorer\.metadata
 
 
where ###$USER### is your userid...
 
 
after that restarting mq explorer resolves the problem. But i was not able to get the source of the problem.
 
 
.log file under that folder shows the source of problem
 
 
thanks,

				Thank god for this thread.
 
I had the same problem and deleting / renaming the .metadata folder fixed the problem. Now the MQ Explorer starts fine again. |

				Hi, 
 
 
And on win 7 the path is C:\Users\###$user###\AppData\Roaming\IBM\MQ Explorer
 
 
I had also that problem and deleting the .metadata folder fixed it :O)
 
 
Rgds
