Description Michael Favia 2005-06-21 21:52:11 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050524 Fedora/1.0.4-4 Firefox/1.0.4

Description of problem:
When installing just the base platform without jdt and pde eclipse complains when you are trying to install plugins (subclipse, and phpeclipse to be specific) and in some cases prevents their installation (if you havent installed jdt/ecj) because of an "improperly configured product". This bug is file by request of overholt.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.1 RC3

How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
install:
eclipse-platform-3.1.0_fc-0.RC3.1
and
libswt3-gtk2-3.1.0_fc-0.RC3.1
tomcat5-jasper-5.0.30-5jpp_6fc
tomcat5-servlet-2.4-api-5.0.30-5jpp_6fc
tomcat5-5.0.30-5jpp_6fc
to satisify deps

Run eclipse and go under:
Help > updates > manage config
under:
Eclipse SDK > /usr/share/eclipse > eclipse project > Show properties > status
this is the message:
Included feature "org.eclipse.platform.source_3.1.0" is missing.

Included feature "Eclipse Java Development Tools" version "3.1.0" is disabled.

Included feature "org.eclipse.jdt.source_3.1.0" is missing.

Included feature "org.eclipse.pde_3.1.0" is missing.

Included feature "org.eclipse.pde.source_3.1.0" is missing.

Actual Results: Unable to update and manage config complains about improper config.

Expected Results: Platform shoul operate normally with or without "defualt plugins" so that it can be used for other development environments.

Comment 1 Michael Favia 2005-06-23 19:41:16 UTC

Well after a bit more invesitgation i am able to say that it is indeed
reproducible. I have attempted without success to configure eclipse-platform
with libswt3-gtk2 and everytime i get the same roadbloack to adding plugins and
otherwise manage updates. My temporary workaround options are:

1. install all the cruft (pde, jdt, ecj, etc) that i dont need.
2. manually install the plugins and feature sets.

I have opted for the later one in the short term but have had limited success
with full functionality. I'm going to try and see why platform thinks the others
should be there.

Comment 2 Andrew Overholt 2005-06-24 20:22:25 UTC

Can you try with the 3.1 RC3 RPMs I just built into rawhide when they get synced
publicly tomorrow sometime?  I'm confused as to what is causing this.  There are
some dot-files that I guess could be causing it.  I'll try to investigate myself.

Comment 3 Andrew Overholt 2005-06-24 20:40:52 UTC

It looks like platform has a requirement on rcp.  When I install rcp, I can
install subclipse no problem.  I'll rebuild in rawhide with a requirement on rcp
for platform.

Comment 4 Michael Favia 2005-07-07 18:48:36 UTC

UPDATE: Removed all deps and started over. Grabbed eclispe-platfom from
development branch to see what deps are required and installed as many as
possible from fc4 yum chan (tomcat5, lucene, etc) before turning enabling yum
rawhide. yum installed eclispe-platform it dragged along the following:

Proceeded with install. Started up eclipse and it runs great. The phpeclipse
plugins were already installed when i first got in but i might have left them in
plugins last time. I do have issues when running "HELP > SOFTWARE UPDATES > FIND
AND INSTALL..." i get an error message concerning the features.xml file for rcp.
Everything seems to work well but if you look under  "HELP > SOFTWARE UPDATES >
MANAGE" you will see that eclipse is still looking for pde, jdt, and
platfrom-source and complaining that they arent there. I am going to wipe the
slate clean and try once more to install the platform from these rpms and
install the phpeclipse plugins with svn to see if issues are still outstanding.

Comment 5 Andrew Overholt 2005-12-05 21:50:09 UTC

While investigating this and bug 173589, I determined that
eclipse-platform-devel needs eclipse-rcp-devel.  I've added this and it will
show up in rawhide and fc4-updates-testing soon.

Comment 6 Andrew Overholt 2005-12-08 15:22:59 UTC

I've built packages for both rawhide (eclipse-3.1.1-1jpp_9fc) and FC4
(eclipse-3.1.1-1jpp_1fc.FC4.8 ... will appear in updates-testing at some point
today) that contain this fix.  When you get a chance, please test these to see
if they fix this problem.  Thanks.

Comment 7 Ben Konrath 2006-01-04 19:19:39 UTC

Confirming this is fixed in updates-testing with the following package versions:

gcc-4.0.2-8.fc4
eclipse-platform-3.1.1-1jpp_1fc.FC4.11
