Hi Jesper,
Where do you keep the .product definition for this product? In what project and what type of project? What ID does the
product have there.

Are you creating the actual update site from the product feature?
You should know that the feature that defines the content of the actual site normally is excluded from the site itself.
You can change this behavior by adding the property:
site.include.top=true
or, add a feature that describes the site (gives the site a name, lists its content etc.) and include the product
feature there.
HTH,

Not really. The important thing is that the property is passed on when you perform the site.p2 action. Either as a
-Dxxx=yyy or as a -P <property file>

It should appoint the product. Not the feature. 'com.iar.hubble.product' seems correct to me.

It doesn't use the product definition file directly.
When you generate a p2 repository, the publisher will generate UI's for all product definitions that it finds in the
included features. The create.product calls the p2 director to make an install from the generated repository. The
director in turn, requests the product IU.

Hi Jesper,

No, it's not part of the build properties. It's a property evaluated by
the buckminster runtime. If you invoke your action from the UI the
dialog gives you an option to specify a properties file. If you run
headless you can add a -p some/file.properties.
Just create a buckminster.properties or so and add the line
site.include.top=true

iu means Installable Unit. An installable unit in the p2 sense can for
example be a bundle, a feature, or a complete product. In your case the
IU is a complete product, hence, the ID of the IU is the ID of the
product as it's displayed in the overview section when you open your
product file.

The create.product action does not process any product files, it just
invokes the p2 director that will assemble your product. It tells the
director which IU you want to install and where to get the materials
from (the p2 repository that your site.p2 action created earlier).
Best regards,
Johannes

Do I need to tell Buckminster where the p2 site is located when
executing the create.product action? Judging by the debug output, it
looks as if the actual p2 site used is in a different place than the
buckminster.output.root directory I set in the buckminster.properties file.
Is there a way to display all the IUs, including any products, in an
update site? The "listsite" command only displays the features.
