Update Button Disabled [message #124571] Wed, 14 January 2009 20:31 Go to next message

I am building a feature-based product using the headless builder and I am
generating p2 metadata. To p2-enable my product, I use the
'org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director.app.application' application to install my
product. This seems to work correctly as there are no errors being reported.
When I start my product and go to the Software Updates dialog, I see my
product listed in the 'Installed Software' tab. However, both the Update...
and Uninstall... buttons are disabled. Anyone have any ideas as to why this
is? If I select my product in the list, the buttons are still disabled.

Thanks,

Chris

I figured out the issue. I had previously exported my product and was using
the config.ini generated by the Product Export Wizard. In this file, the
eclipse.p2.data.area is set to platform:/base/p2. When I start my product, a
profile is being generated at my root folder (C:\ drive) instead of using
the profile under the p2 directory. If I change the value of
eclipse.p2.data.area to @config.dir/../p2, the problem goes away and the
update button is enabled.
