I have never used the Eclipse Remote System Explorer until today so perhaps this is obvious. I primarily use my lubuntu 12.10 desktop for development but I decided it would be convenient to set up Remote System Explorer so I could work on projects using my Windows XP laptop when I happen to be away. I installed the RSE components, set up the ssh connection and I am able to log into the linux box and access and import all of my files. However, when I used the "Create Remote Projects" option to import a simple Android Hello World application I got an error:
This project has no project.properties file! Edit the project properties to set one.
However, there is a project.properties file in the project and I am not sure what I should change, if anything, or if I am using RSE incorrectly.
Update: I did try right-clicking on the project -> Android Tools -> Fix project properties
but this did not do anything and the error still appears.
