Problem with Eclipse software update [message #270407]

I'm having problems with both installing and updating new features in
Eclipse. I don't understand what's going on, so perhaps someone can
help me understand.

For example, when I try to update the Eclipse platform to version to
3.4.2.R342_v20090122, I get this error.

Cannot complete the request. See the details.
Eclipse Platform is already installed, so an update will be performed
instead.
Cannot find a solution satisfying the following requirements
Match[requiredCapability:
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.ui/[3.4.2.M20090204-08 00,3.4.2.M20
090204-0800]].

What should I do in order to fix this?

Hi,

We were facing a similar problem in our product.

Eclipse platform Ganymede/3.4 contains two provisioning systems: the
original Update Manager, and the new Equinox p2 provisioning platform. By
default, p2 is in control of the system and the Update Manager is hidden.
The following link describes how to revert to the classic Update Manager
and remove p2.

After following the steps we were able to get our update manager working.

However in case you want to continue with the new p2 provisioning
platform, then visit the link

Sheela
