I have the SVN connector zip file. How do I install the SVN connectors manually. I tried unzipping the file into the eclipse folder but the program still insists on going to the website to get the and SVN preferences do show them as being installed. They are in the eclipse plugins directory.

Hello Ray,

You can install connectors through Eclipse Update Mananer(p2), in Eclipse
3.5 select menu Help/Install New Software... then click Add... button near
'Work with...' combo and in opened Add Site dialog click Archive... button
to select connectors archive in file system.

I need to know how to install them manually. Eclipse.org is blocked so I can't use the Install software option. I used to be able to unsip the connectors into the eclipse directory but this doesn't work anymore.

Hello Ray,

If you already have a zip of connectors (archived update site), you can
follow steps that I described in previous comment; it doesn't require to
access Eclipse.org server because you install connectors from your local
file system (also connectors are located not on Eclipse.org server but on
Polarion server); here you need to point to a location of connectors archive
on local file system.
Depending on your Eclipse version, you can unpack connectors in Eclipse's
dropins: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Getting_Started

Where did you find the zip files? I can only locate the jar files here:

http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/e clipse/2.0/helios-site/

When i tried to install manually by point to the jar files it doesn't work.

Thanks
