Hi all

I have troubles installing buckminster headless.
As I am behind a proxy I cannot install on windows in commandline with following:

director -r http://download.eclipse.org/tools/buckminster/headless-3.5/ -d c:\buckminster_headless -p Buckminster -i org.eclipse.buckminster.cmdline.product

I get the message

19.05.2010 07:38:05 org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector executeWithRetry
INFO: I/O exception (java.net.ConnectException) caught when processing request: Connection timed out: connect
19.05.2010 07:38:05 org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector executeWithRetry
INFO: Retrying request

How can I fix this problem?

So I have tested another way to install:
I have downloaded the file 'org.eclipse.buckminster.site.eclipse.headless_1.1.350.r1125 2.zip' and install from this file:

director.bat -r file://C:\org.eclipse.buckminster.site.eclipse.headless_1.1.350.r11252 -d c:\buckminster -p Buckminster -i org.eclipse.buckminster.cmdline.product

That was OK
So I tried to install required features. I tried

C:\buckminster>buckminster.bat install file://C:\buckminster_headless\org.eclipse.buckminster.site.eclipse.headless_1.1.350.r11252 org.eclipse.buckminster.core.headless.feature

but there was an error

No suitable feature/version found that matches org.eclipse.buckminster.core.headless.feature.feature.group

Can you help me to install buckminster headless and its required features correctly?
Any ideas?
best regards
Rainer

p2 seems not to pick them up

Did anyone ever figure this out? I'm having the same problem and I've done everything I know to specify my proxy settings from passing them in to putting them into org.eclipse.core.net.prefs

Hi Josh,

IIRC, 3.5 had a problem with this. In 3.6, Buckminster relies on the
platfrom which in turn relies on your environment settings. You should
probably try passing nothing at all and have no
org.eclipse.core.net.prefs. That works well for us when using Bucky
behind a proxy.

HTH,

What I do is apply my proxy settings to the director install. So after unzipping director.zip, I do this in my install script:

# set up the proxy
cat > ${unzip_dir}/director/configuration/.settings/org.eclipse.co re.net.prefs <<'END_OF_CONFIG'
systemProxiesEnabled=false
org.eclipse.core.net.hasMigrated=true
proxyData/HTTPS/port=8080
proxyData/HTTP/host=wwwcache.xxx.com
nonProxiedHosts=trac.xxx.com|localhost|127.0.0.1
proxyData/HTTP/hasAuth=false
proxyData/HTTP/port=8080
eclipse.preferences.version=1
proxyData/HTTPS/hasAuth=false
proxyData/HTTPS/host=wwwcache.xxx.com
END_OF_CONFIG

That's for Linux, obviously, but there should be an equivalent for Windows.

However, given Thomas' advice it looks like this isn't needed.

This worked and helped immensely! Thank you!! I definitely needed to specify this somewhere as the directory was not picking up my environment variables on linux as Thomas suggested.
