Can't install vaadin 7 eclipse plugin

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8
1

Hi,

I’m trying to install the eclipse plugin from here: http://vaadin.com/eclipse/experimental. I’ve added the Ivy repository too (http://www.apache.org/dist/ant/ivyde/updatesite).
But the install is complaining about a not found IvyIde version (2.2.0).

I’ve tried in both Juno and Kepler platforms.

Am I missing something?

thanks

Cristiano

You are; you need to install IvyDE from the eclipse marketplace first. I have no idea why this still isn’t a direct requirement of the eclipse plugin, or why it is undocumented…

It is not necessary to install IvyDE separately but adding the update site should be enough.

The issue is that my changes seem to have broken the plug-in dependencies yesterday, I reverted it on the update site to a slightly older version while investigating.

Hi Henry,

It seems that you are restricting your plugin to one version of ivyIde, maybe using a version range would be better.
Btw, if you are using p2, I would like to suggest you to create
associate sites
 for your update site. this simple task will add the sites need by yours automatically and could easy the life of vaadin users.
regards,

Cristiano

Hi,
I got similar problem when updating from 6.8.4 to vaadin7 (in indigo/W7-64).
After some investigation I noticed that there is a depencency problem in ivy. I’m not able to update ivy to 2.3.0.cr2 and get the following message.

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
session context was:(profile=SDKProfile, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).
No repository found containing: osgi.bundle,org.apache.ivy,2.3.0.cr2_20121105223351
No repository found containing: osgi.bundle,org.apache.ivy.eclipse.ant,2.3.0.cr2_20121105223351

No repository found containing: org.eclipse.update.feature,org.apache.ivy.feature,2.3.0.cr2_20121105223351

The reason seems to be that since Jan 20, 2013 there are only 2.3.0 repositories (see announcment at http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/2.3.0/release-notes.html , I cannot find the “2.3.0.cr2” repositories. Same happens to the update process.

thanks to Daryl Davis hint: https://vaadin.com/forum/-/message_boards/view_message/2529055#_19_message_2621695 I solved my install-problem.

Hi,

Can you try to use https://vaadin.com/eclipse instead of the regular http?
