3.1rc2 update site problem [message #286906] Tue, 21 June 2005 11:39 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I'm trying to create an update site that will be used internally by
developers on my team so that we can all have the option of easily using a
standard set of plugins. I have created an update site using the new Update
Site project wizard. I selected the three plugins I wanted, built them all,
and published the site to my computer's apache server web directory. When I
try to access the site from my eclipse, it tells me, "No features found on
the selected site(s). Choose a different site or site category"

When I open an older version of Eclipse and point it at the site, it finds
the features fine. Every update site I visit now (presumably these sites
were made with a pre-3.1 version of Eclipse) works fine.

I just tried with 3.1 RC3 and a local update site and it worked fine.

If you have a test case people can use to reproduce the problem, please
open a PR against Platform/Update.

Dumb question: what's a PR?

I see. I will look into that.

In the meantime, I put the update site up on my webpage, so if investigation
of it would help, have at it:

I tried with RC3 and it works fine. I didn't allow the plug-ins to
actually run (I removed them from my configuration after they were
installed). But they were installed properly.

You're getting farther than I did. I will try rc3 now and see if it yields
any different results. This is odd that you can get things from that site
and I cannot. Maybe it's because I already have the plugins installed? If
that's the case, the message "no features were found" should perhaps be made
more informative.

Yes, this is it.

Please open a problem report if you want that to happen.

I will do that.

When a plugin developer makes an update site, what is the standard way to
verify that the update site is functioning properly?

Chris, it works nicely on a 31rc3 from your update site.
There is really no standard way, but the way I do it is to have a vanilla
eclipse on hand, first start with a local update site, then move to test
with a remote site, and always starting with a vanilla eclipse & new
workspace.

I see. I did that with a fresh rc3 install and it worked just great.
