I’m trying to setup myeclipse 5.1 on my Ubuntu Linux machine(Dapper). I have installed Eclipse 3.2 and the Java 5 jdk. I downloaded the manual install version of MyEclipse 5.1.(ME-5.1.0GA_E3.2.1ManualInstall.zip). When I look at the zipped files I see the following file structure: 1. eclipseextension file, 2. Features Folder. I do not see a plugins folder. When I do an extraction of all the files/folders in the downloaded zip file, It does not contain a plugins folder. As a result, I apparently cannot install the manual version of MyEclipe.
To check, after I have made what looks like a successful installation, I go into Eclipse: I choose:1)Help/Software Updates/Manage Configuration
2) Expand the left hand Eclipse SDK icon, and 3)choose MyEclipse Enterprise Work Bench 5.1.0/Show Properties/Status, I get the following message “Plug-in “com.genuitec.myeclipse.enterprise.workbench” version “5.1.0” referenced by this feature is missing.” Several other items show a similar lack of a plugin. Clearly the plugins are all missing.Is there something wrong with your download file or did I miss something?
TIA for any help.
SortaNorthSortaNorth,
You probably haven’t downloaded the file completely.
The size of the file is 203,098,256 bytes.My downloaded file indicates it is 203,098,256 bytes. I downloaded it again to make sure I got it all. Same size file, still no plugin folder showing. By adding up all the file sizes in the Features folder, I get something less than 580 kilobytes. (after expansion), so something is amiss here. If the file thinks it is the correct size, but the sum of the parts is less than one percent of the file size so something isn’t showing. If no one else is having this problem then I must have a bigger problem with my computer, although I’ve not had problems with any other files.
SortaNorth,
It appears that your unpack software doesn’t work correctly.
The size of the plugins directory is about 270 MB.
Unzip from Dapper should work correctly.Thanks for your suggestions. I’ve not had any problems with my Unzip program preparing other programs/files, but apparently I am having them with MyEclipse. I ended up downloading the program to my Windows machine, then unzipping the files and transporting them over my network to my linux machine. Now it seems to be working ok. Thanks for your support.

SortaNorthI have tested the distribution using unzip 5.52 on Dapper.
What is the version of your unzip program?I was wrong. I was not using unzip. I have unzip 5.52 installed and it seems to work fine. I was starting the unzip process in KDE and wasn’t paying proper attention to the fact that KDE was actually using ARK 2.6.2 to do the unzipping. So Ark was the errant program. Unzip works ok. Next time I’ll quit using shortcuts and just use unzip from the command line, like I should have in the first place! Thanks Again
