feature shows as (disabled) in the install/update manager [message #56220] Fri, 25 July 2003 15:56

Originally posted by: no.spam.com

I have a feature with several plugins which I have installed as a
primary feature into a copy of 2.1.1 of Eclipse.

When I use the update manager to try to update this feature, when I
browse the Feature Updates view to my update site, it will not show any
versions to update unless I uncheck the "Show Matching Features Only"
option. How can I debug why it is deciding that my features don't match?

After unchecking that option, and clicking on the newer version I would
like to update to, the preview view shows my current version - 0.1.3 -
but it also says (disabled) next to the version. How do I figure out
why it is saying this? If I click the Update Now button, it later has
errors and fails - and I've been told its probably because it thinks its
disabled.

Here is part of the text from Help -> About -> Configuration details
(the lexgrid stuff is my feature):


*** Features:
lexgrid.org.ui.plugin (0.1.3) "lexgrid.org.ui.plugin"
org.eclipse.emf (1.1.0) "org.eclipse.emf"
org.eclipse.jdt (2.1.1) "org.eclipse.jdt"
org.eclipse.jdt.source (2.1.1) "org.eclipse.jdt.source"
org.eclipse.pde (2.1.0) "org.eclipse.pde"
org.eclipse.platform (2.1.1) "org.eclipse.platform"
org.eclipse.platform.source (2.1.1) "org.eclipse.platform.source"
org.eclipse.platform.win32 (2.1.1) "org.eclipse.platform.win32"
org.eclipse.platform.win32.source (2.1.1)
"org.eclipse.platform.win32.source"
org.eclipse.sdk.win32 (2.1.1) "org.eclipse.sdk.win32"

*** Plug-in Registry:

org.apache.ant (1.5.3) "Apache Ant"
org.apache.lucene (1.2.1) "Apache Lucene"
........

And this feature works correctly - except for not being able to update it.


Here is most of the feature.xml file from the version I have installed
(I stripped out things like the <copyright>..... etc.

And finally, here is my site.xml file from my update site:

<site>

<description url="172.22.19.15/update">

</description>

<feature url="features/lexgrid.org.ui.plugin_0.1.4.jar"
id="lexgrid.org.ui.plugin" version="0.1.4">
<category name="Lexgrid"/>
</feature>

<category-def name="Lexgrid" label="Lexgrid Update Site">
<description>
Where to update your lexgrid stuff
</description>
</category-def>
</site>



Can anyone give me some more tips about how to fix this? I've gone
around with it for a while, and can't find the piece I'm missing.

Thanks,

Dan
