Startup tasks not executed if project.setup is pulled from redirected setup [message #1741289]

Hi,

I have a project.setup file that contains some tasks for downloading and extratcing files and resource modification for bootstrapping and some tasks for eclipse workspace preferences, so startup tasks.

I redirect to a hosted org.eclipse.setup file that contains my setup.project file as "projectCatalog".

When I add the project.setup file in the advanced installer manually and install my project from that file everything is fine; at first startup the preferences are set and working sets are created.

If install using the hosted project.setup file that then none of the startup tasks are executed. The "Setup tasks" windows doesn't contain any of them. I'm 100% sure that the files are identical, I actually add them from my HTTP repository for the first test. So the only difference is how the installer accesses them. How is that possible?

setup.log from error case:

[2016-08-24 14:26:50] Performing post bootstrap tasks
[2016-08-24 14:26:50] 
[2016-08-24 14:26:50] Launching the installed product...
(EOF)

setup.log from positive case:

[2016-08-24 14:07:41] Performing post bootstrap tasks
[2016-08-24 14:07:41] 
[2016-08-24 14:07:41] Launching the installed product...

It's almost impossible to guess what might be wrong without knows the details of what you've done. What's been redirected? What's all been copied? I.e., the entire setups folder? Some subset?

You know you can just redirect just the redirectable project catalog so that the rest is all reused, right: https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Authoring#Hosting_your_own_index_.2F_catalogs

Hi Ed,

thanks for helping out. Tried using the redirection approach:

I added -Doomph.redirection.myProjectCatalog=index:/redirectable.projects.setup->http://werum2103:5001/my.projects.setup to eclipse.inst.ini
my.projects.setup looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<setup:ProjectCatalog
    xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:setup="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/1.0"
    xmlns:setup.targlets="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/targlets/1.0"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/targlets/1.0 http://git.eclipse.org/c/oomph/org.eclipse.oomph.git/plain/setups/models/SetupTarglets.ecore"
    name="org.eclipse"
    label="PAS-X SDK">
		<project href="http://werum2103:5001/setups/PASSDKProject.setup#/"/>
  <setupTask
        xsi:type="setup:EclipseIniTask"
        option="-Doomph.redirection.myProjectCatalog=index:/redirectable.projects.setup->http://werum2103:5001/my.projects.setup"
        value=""/>
</setup:ProjectCatalog>

I won't add the content of the actual project setup file as it's quite long. But it contains the same Eclipse Ini Task for forwarding.

Now when I install that project then no startup tasks are executed at all. Adding that setup file manually and installing with that project the tasks are executed at startup.

I even tried downloading the Ooomph source code and hosting the whole setup folder and using that and it still didn't work.

Also, for a test, I disabled the automatic start of eclipse after installing. I opened the eclipse.ini and added the same redirections and update sites as in eclipse-inst.ini:

-Doomph.installer.update.url=http://pasxnexus.werum.net/nexus/content/groups/pasx_sdk_update_group
-Doomph.update.url=http://pasxnexus.werum.net/nexus/content/groups/pasx_sdk_update_group
-Doomph.redirection.myProjectCatalog=index:/redirectable.projects.setup->http://werum2103:5001/my.projects.setup

I started Eclipse and no startup tasks were performed. I opened the Catalog Index and made sure that my Project was contained there.

The correctly installed Eclipse contains my project in the "Open Setup" context menu, the wrong installed Eclipse does not.

Is the name of the option ("-Doomph.redirection.whatever") relevant (the "whatever" part")?

Update: From the installed eclipse I can import the project in the "Projects into workspace" dialog and its tasks are executed. So the project file is fine and can be found by the installed Eclipse

Simon,

Is the project simply contained in the catalog, or is it in a separate resource that's cross resource contained by the catalog? If the latter, what does the URI look like? Is it an absolute URI?

Note that the projects are referenced by the workspace.setup. You can use Navigate -> Open Setup -> Workspace to open it. From the context menu of the setup editor, you can use Open Text Editor to look at the file textually. What does the URI for the reference to the project setup look like? I suspect in both cases the project reference is present, but in the incorrectly functioning case that it's an unresolved proxy. Hence the question about how the project catalog references or contains the project setup, and this followup question about how the reference look in the workspace.setup.

When using -Doomph.redirection.*, the * has no semantic significance, other than the fact that multiple Eclipse Ini tasks can be merged, so if there is more than one task for -Dxyz=abc and -Dxyz=def you'll end up with a single task, so definitely it's good to make the * part unique in your overall context.

Hi Ed,

the file my.projects.setup I quoted above (and which I redirect to) contains an absolute link to my project: <project href="http://werum2103:5001/setups/PASSDKProject.setup#/"/>

For the positive case my workspace.setup looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<setup:Workspace
    xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:setup="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/1.0"
    name="workspace">
  <setupTask
      xsi:type="setup:VariableTask"
      name="eclipse.target.platform"
      value="Neon"
      defaultValue="Neon"
      label="Target Platform">
    <description>Choose the compatibility level of the target platform</description>
  </setupTask>
  <stream href="index:/org.eclipse.setup#//@projectCatalogs[name='org.eclipse']/@projects[name='user.project']/@projects[name='PAS-X%20SDK24']/@streams[name='master']"/>
</setup:Workspace>

For the one where it doesn't work it looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<setup:Workspace
    xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
    xmlns:setup="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/1.0"
    name="workspace"/>

So it doesn't contain any mention of a setup task or my project. But user.setup actually contains an unresolved project. The warning displayed in the setup editor:

 The feature 'restrictions' of ' PAS-X SDK24' contains an unresolved proxy ' index:/org.eclipse.setup#//@projectCatalogs[name='org.eclipse']/@projects[name='PAS-X%20SDK24']'

So it seems indeed that something cannot be resolved but I have no idea what that could be or how to fix it.

Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.

Update: I also noticed that when using the manually added project the installer displays a selection box for the target platform, but not when using the redirected setup file.

Note that this is referencing the file via the user.project of the eclipse.org project catalog, not via your product catalog.

Here it seems to be expecting it to be directly in the org.eclipse project catalog.

Here it also appears to assume it's directly in the org.eclipse project catalog.

Now I noticed that you named your project catalog like this name="org.eclipse" but that's the same name as the existing org.eclipse catalog, so resolving any proxy is likely to resolve to the wrong project catalog, and then not find your project in that catalog. You must ensure that each project catalog has a unique name. Best to rename your project catalog to something else!

Ed, renaming the projects catalog doesn't help. The user.setup doesn't show any conflicts, neither does workspace.setup. My project setup is still not displayed in the navigate menu and its tasks aren't executed.

I'm giving up, users will need to know what to select and add the setup file manually.

Here's one from the Oomph.setup:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<setup:EclipseIniTask
    xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
    xmlns:setup="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/1.0"
    option="-Doomph.redirection.setups"
    value="=http://git.eclipse.org/c/oomph/org.eclipse.oomph.git/plain/setups/->${git.clone.oomph.location|uri}/setups/"
    vm="true"/>

Note it's a VM option (not a program option), and that it does use -D to specify system property, and that the value specifically does include the "=".
