Description Jon Smirl 2006-03-22 00:11:51 UTC
Eclipse updates worked fine for me on FC4, now I am having all kinds of trouble
with them. No matter what I do I cannot get Web Tools to install.

http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates/

I get various errors, Null pointer, cast exceptions, internal errors, etc...

This is from a clean FC5 install. No .eclipse or workspace from FC4.

Here's the cast error:

org.eclipse.update.internal.core.SiteFilePackedPluginContentConsumer cannot be
cast to org.eclipse.update.internal.core.SiteFilePluginContentConsumer


I am slowly getting things installed by restarting Eclipse after each update.
Doing everything in a group fails.

We fixed a bunch of issues with the way the update manager works with FC-6, have
you tried the packages from FC-6 yet?
