The JEE package has been removed from the downloads page as well as
the Europa Page.
Please advise when I can rollback these changes.

OK, Nathan is going to remove the Java EE package from the
download page.
Hopefully marcus can take a look on the weekend or
Monday. When it is fixed we will put it back up.

There is an issue with the Java EE Developer package that
causes serious problems when trying to use the Update Manager after the initial
installation. This is due to a couple of missing plugins that should be
in the package. See bug 194959 and below for more information.
These missing plugins only affect the Update Manager functionality, but affect
it in a very serious way.
The question is whether or not we should pull the Java EE package from the
download section until this issue can be corrected, as this is likely to be a
major user issue when it comes to updating or adding functionality via the
Update Manager.

-------- Original Message --------
Unfortunately it appears that a couple of plugins didn't make it into the JEE
distribution for some reason. Specifically:
org.eclipse.datatools.doc.user_1.0.0.200706071.jar
org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.finfo_1.5.0.200706221.jar
This was probably the result of trying to user "feature level"
prereqs in the JPT feature. This may have caused a problem with prereq's
for the IDE distributions. The pure -Update Manager from Platform only-
path will download the correct plugins and therefore will not have this issue.
To remedy the problem with the current JEE configuration, one must download the
Data Tools Platform Enablement feature AND the Data Tools Platform
Documentation feature.
This seems like a pretty serious usability issue.

I
downloaded this distribution, went to install WLS Server Tools via an
update site and got the following message:
Java
Persistence API Tools (1.0.0.v200706250000-77--CYQCCz-CoRPCCCH) requires
feature "org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.feature".
Note
that the feature that I am installing has no dependencies on JPA or DTP. I
looked at the distribution and indeed it does not contain
org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.feature feature. In fact there are quite a few
datatools features missing as compared to a "standard" WTP
installation (as downloaded via the WTP build page). It looks like this problem
will prevent installation of all features via the update site mechanism.
Not
sure who owns creating this distribution...
