Re: [oomph-dev] New Installer
Hi Ian,

Thanks for the feedback! More comments below...

Great work on the new installer! I really like the separation between the "tool to install" and the "project WS to provision".

However, I have one small problem, it's not working at all ;(.

I picked Eclipse Standard
So far I've only ever tried with "Eclipse Standard/SDK" - "Latest (Luna)". What version did you select?

and then the Oomph project. The tooling gets provisioned, although Eclipse launches about 1/2 way through the provisioning steps (which is really strange).
What do you mean by "launches half way..."? Was there an error message on the Progress page of our Installer? Any suspicious ErrorLog messages? Maybe you can attach your eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.oomph.setup/setup.log file.

But no WS is setup (not repositories cloned, targets set, etc..). 

The build stamp for the setup tool is 20140526-1144, which is actually 'in the future' for me :-).
I think that's caused I'm working in your near future :P

Tycho seems to use (local) Git commit times to determine the plugin/feature version qualifiers without converting these timestamps to the timezone of the build machine. I wonder how other projects deal with this problem. I fear it can even become a real problem in rare cases, e.g., Europe modifies and kicks a build (in Canada), then, an hour later Canada modifies and kicks a build. Wouldn't the version qualifier go *down* by ~5 hours then?!


Maybe things are just moving quickly right now (with the recent creation of the project, etc...) and I should just wait a few days. However, if things are expected to be in a working state, I can happily file bugs.
There are certainly things that we haven't been able to fully test right now. But the "normal" flow, especially a first time installation of Oomph itself, *should* work without problems. So please submit bugs (see https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Installer#Getting_in_Touch ) and help us identify these problems.

Cheers
