Problems building a p2-enabled Eclipse workbench-based product [message #757470]

I am generating a feature-based product using the PDE headless build script productBuild.xml. The product is similar to the Indigo Eclipse Platform (eclipse-platform-3.7*.zip) but with an extra feature. It does not use p2.gathering at present.

The product works correctly, but I get an error "This installation has not been configured properly for Software Updates" when I attempt to check for updates or install new software. The error log indicates:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk 2 0 2011-11-18 14:32:04.023
!MESSAGE Could not locate the running profile instance. The eclipse.p2.data.area and eclipse.p2.profile properties may not be set correctly in this application's config.ini file.

The eclipse.p2.data.area and eclipse.p2.profile properties are not set at all in the config.ini file.

I have tried enabling p2.gathering but the resulting build does not include the eclipse.exe launcher.

What do I need to add to generate an equivalent .zip file using p2.gathering or is there an easier way to enable my product for updates?

All advice much appreciated!

Peter

Peter,

I have exactly the same problem, only exception is that my product is
plugin based at the moment. I tried p2.gathering and also messed with
3.4 style p2 arguments but to no success.

Do you came to any conclusion or solution meanwhile?

Cheers
Jan
