Launching Plugin Fails, Missing Constraint javax.xml.bind

I am writing an Eclipse plugin using Eclipse RCP (Kepler). Everything was working fine until last night all the sudden I started getting null pointer exceptions when trying to test my plugin. Here is a snippit of the stacktrace:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui.workbench 4 2 2013-08-24 08:36:17.616
!MESSAGE Problems occurred when invoking code from plug-in: "org.eclipse.ui.workbench".

To try and figure out what might be going on I went to the launch configuration for my plugin and clicked "Validate Plug-ins" and get the following error:

org.apache.xmlrpc
    Missing Constraint: Import-package: javax.xml.bind; version="0.0.0"

Could this be the reason why launching my plugin is failing? If so, how to I fix it?

Thank you

You can right click on your project, go to Run as -> Run configurations and to Plug-ins tab. Here click on the Add required plug-ins button and this should solve your validation problem automatically.
