Hello,

On my fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 the java-neon installer fails with no specific message:
- in normal install mode the installation process starts, then the GUI comes back to the INSTALL button;
- in advanced mode, it ends with the message "Task execution was canceled. Press Back to choose different settings or Cancel to abort."

I have tried with both the openjdk8 and the Oracle jdk. I have also tried with and without the "Mirrors" option, following a comment on this forum. No success either. Everything else is set to the default values.

Here is the final screen provided by the installer ("Mirrors" unticked):

Yes, you'd be better to post this on the Oomph forum.

Someone else complained about something with similar symptoms on the Oomph forum. Perhaps there's a clue (an exception stack trace) in the installer's error log. That should be in a *.log in the configuration folder of the installer. Does this also happen if you install into a new clean/empty folder?

Someone opened this bug. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=508945 I can't reproduce it. I needs someone's installer log file.

Ok, I will post it on the installer's forum.

All attempts were made on new folders.
As for the log file, its content is exactly the same as what I posted. It's the only file remaining after the crash, and it's located in eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.oomph.setup/setup.log

I attach it here, just in case.
