[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-21170) Virtualbox could not be found by CDK adapter

[Rob Stryker (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-21170?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13143117#comment-13143117 ] 

Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-21170:
-------------------------------------

[~mmalina]  From our tests, and some tests with fred, well, we haven't been able to actually use this PR to *get* the full path. It seems our call to the 'bash' command counts as a child process, and so the bash command inherits our eclipse environment (including empty path).  Then, our bash calling 'env' creates another child process which inherits bash's environment, including the empty path mentioned above. 

So basically, seems the patch does nothing to fix anything at all :(

> After I set up a CDK server adapter and fixed the wrong path to vagrant in the launch config, I then started the server adapter and got this:
> Server CDK Server Adapter at localhost failed to start.
> Console:
> {code}
> The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine
> 'default' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The
> reason is shown below:
> Vagrant could not detect VirtualBox! Make sure VirtualBox is properly installed.
> Vagrant uses the `VBoxManage` binary that ships with VirtualBox, and requires
> this to be available on the PATH. If VirtualBox is installed, please find the
> `VBoxManage` binary and add it to the PATH environmental variable.

> In the command line, VBoxManage is accessible and it is located in /usr/local/bin/ and on my PATH.
> Max suggested I could try to start Eclipse from command line instead of double-clicking in Finder (which is the normal way to do it on Mac) and that helped.
> So for some reason when you start Eclipse using Eclipse.app from Finder, the PATH is incorrect.
