Error when creating empty project in Tizen Studio

Original Created Feb 10, 2017 | Regeneration Apr 22, 2026

I'm experiencing an issue with Tizen Studio on both Windows 10 x64 and Ubuntu systems. When I create any project, I get the following error message:

"An internal error occurred during: 'Compute launch button tooltip'. org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.File cannot be cast to org.eclipse.core.resources.IProject"

I've tried several solutions found online (modifying eclipse.ini, removing .metadata folder, etc.) but none have worked.

Additional details:

  • Ubuntu version: Initially mentioned 10.04, but later corrected to 16.04.2 LTS
  • The same error occurs on both operating systems
  • JDK is properly installed on both systems
  • HAXM is working on Windows

Interestingly, the error disappears when I add a mobile app project alongside the smartwatch project.

Problem Understanding

The error occurs specifically when working with only a smartwatch project in Tizen Studio. This appears to be a known issue that was scheduled to be fixed in an upcoming update.

Solution Methods

  1. Workaround Solution:

    • Add a mobile application project alongside your smartwatch project
    • This combination appears to resolve the error and allows normal operation
  2. System Requirements Check:

    • Verify your system meets the minimum requirements:
      • For Ubuntu: Version 14.04/12.04 or later (16.04.2 LTS is confirmed working)
      • Ensure proper JDK installation
      • On Windows, confirm HAXM is properly installed and working
  3. Upcoming Fix:

    • According to developer comments, this issue was scheduled to be fixed in an upcoming Tizen Studio update

Additional Tips

  • When experiencing IDE-related issues, always check:
    • System requirements compatibility
    • Java development kit installation
    • Hardware acceleration settings
