Eclipse RCP application export fails

Hi,

I try to export my rcp application but it doesnt work, after the export, when running the application I get immediately:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2008-10-10 14:40:46.656
!MESSAGE Application error

now I know this is because of a missing dependent plugin,
so I started osgi command line and after using ss to list the plugins, I notice one plugin I made was missing.
So I installed it manually in equinox and surprisingly that worked, it installed and started without problems. Even after a 'diag' I said that everything was ok.
So then I tried to start the previously failing plugin again (since now it should work right ?)
But when I then tried to start the plugin again (in equinox "start 5" where 5 is the number of the plugin that failed), it still complained that it could not find the plugin I just installed manually.

what is happening here ?

best regards,
mark
