Eclipse not working after updating to v12.0.29

Question

I've been using Eclipse for several years now without issue. However, after updating X3 to patch 29 for version 12, it no longer connects to X3. It always stops at 50% at this step. 
 
 I've checked Eclipse proxy settings, which were unchanged (no proxy). 
 The Folder I'm connecting to is set to port 1808. I did notice that the parameters for eclipse had changed, so I set them according to various guidelines I've found (AECLIDBG, AECLIDBGTR, and AECLIPSE all set to Yes). I've tried it at the Users level, as well as the general Parameters level. However, no luck. 
 Has anybody else experienced an issue since updating? Anything I've missed?

At the bottom of Eclipse whilst within the Sage X3 perspective you will see several tabs, which include, Problems, Console, Tasks, Error Log , .... 
 What is contained within the Error Log tab? 
 
 For example, if I shut off the Syracuse service and then load Eclipse and check the error log, you can see a proxy error here:

You can also view the log as text by right clicking the line in the Error Log grid and choosing Open Log . It can often times have more details.

The components that matter for the Eclipse connection are the following: 
 1. The runtime (for example, LSADX for listing files and the runtime for language semantics) 
 2. Syracuse (http calls) 
 3. Eclipse 
 4. Eclipse plugin (marries 4GL, the runtime and Syracuse through a hybrid of several components). You can validate this component's version through the Help | About Eclipse dialog and then click on the X3 icon. 
 
 We have fixed a proxy error before in the plugin. You could check the patch levels in this case of each of the aforementioned and validate you are at the latest pre-requisites. 
 
 One other thing comes to mind you can have a look at. You can check the port for Syracuse and the runtime at the time you have the problem like this. Potentially, another program is stealing your port #.
