RE: [p2-dev] RE: Installing eclipse from the command line
|
I would really rather use the director to build my
installations so any help here would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Miles
John,
I created the local repos using the p2 mirror
application:
I have tested my mirrors by installing all IUs from them
into vanilla eclipse classic installs. Everything works apart from Eclipse (bug
240302 reported). I have also used successfully used both my Eclipse and
Ganymede mirrors as repositories for installing eclipse with the P2 GUI
installer.
I have tried using the external Eclipse and Ganymede
repositories to install Eclipse using the director application. All attempts
failed in the same way: just a P2 directory and nothing else in the install
destination directory. However, now and again (1 out of 10 attempts) I saw
the following NPE in the console:
[echo] Installing Eclipse:

Any idea what is going on here? (I am going to abandon
using director for installation for now.)
Miles
Your use of the director looks fine,
but how are you creating those local repostories? Does it work if you just point
at the remote Ganymede repository instead of your local copy?

This was pretty close to what I was already
using. Nevertheless I translated the relevant bits into macrodefs and ran them
(see attached): * Platform: WinXP * JDK: Sun 1.6.0_06 * Ant: 1.7.1 The result was the
same: the install location contains a p2 directory and nothing else:
C:\TMP\ECLIPSEIDE\3.4\WIN

Just look in the history, the branch point for R3_4_maintenance would
be the last 3.4.0 version.

This file is for
creating 3.5.0 installs. Please excuse my almost limitless ignorance, but should
I be looking at the one for 3.4.0?
Thanks a lot,

The script used to create the eclipse downloads is in CVS, you

John,
Would the simplest approach would be to post the script(s)
used to create the eclipse downloads? I am sure others would find this really
helpful. Could they be attached to the directory wiki page?

I've been on holiday
for a couple of weeks and just catching up on this. I can confirm you
should get the same behaviour with the director application as the installer,
since they both under the covers call the same p2 API to perform the install. I
know this works because we use the director application ourselves during the
eclipse project build to produce the zip files you see on the download page.
Perhaps your command line for calling the director is missing something. Can you
send along the exact command line you are using? I think you already know
this, but you should be using the "org.eclipse.sdk.ide" product IU as the root
when performing the install.

Folks,
Sorry to keep banging on about this - but does anyone
have any idea why eclipse installation fails using the director
application?

I should add that I have
tried using the P2 director app as described here:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_director_application#Installing_a_complete_product
All I end up with is
a p2 folder with 4 subdirectories containing various bit of metadata:
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.metadata.repository
I was expecting a
complete, runnable eclipse install. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Miles

Subject: [p2-dev] Installing eclipse from the command

Hi All,
I have tried the P2 installer to
install eclipse from a local Ganymede mirror. Is it possible to do the same but
non-interactively, without a UI, from a script?
Thanks,
Miles
