I am trying (with a lot of difficulty) to get my existing 3.3 application
upgraded to using P2 auto updates.

I have migrated to 3.5 and rebuilt the application with all plugins and
features at 2.2.0. Used the export wizard to create the application and
set the p2.inf location to point to the local update site. I also included
all the p2 and ecf plugins to that the standard install and update menu
items appear.

I then update one of the features and plugin to 2.2.1 and build the update
site (build all). The update software menu says there is nothing to update
which I suspect is because of the problem below which gets reported when I
try an install new software.

It lets me know it is already installed at 2.2.0 so it will do an update
instead (great) but then it fails with this cryptic error message. In 3.3
it was fine to have a 2.2.0 and a 2.2.1 version of a feature installed and
eclipse would just load the latest version. Why is this complaining.

Also if anyone knows of a step by step guide to making P2 updating work it
would be appreciated. All the articles so far read say do something but
without telling you exactly what than means.

Your original request has been modified.
"Proposal Generator Custom Editor" is already installed, so an update
will be performed instead.
Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.

use the repository build when exporting the product as update site.

it seems like you can only update features not part of the product by
themselve (easiest by exporting them from the features page and a
category.xml file not with an update site project)

I used te repository instead and I found I had to push up the version in
the .product file as well as a bundle then it will update from there.
Thanks for the pointer.
