Hi,

I just downloaded myeclipse 10, i entered subscription details,
then i wanted to add SVN Plugin,
I looked under help for software updates, but could not find it,
i even tried to look in preferences for install/update but could not find that too.

Please help me, is there any problem with my installation or do i need to do anything more to see that.

Kranthi,

Please confirm if you have followed below approach to add SVN plugin –
1. Open MyEclipse IDE, click on Help > MyEclipse Configuration Center.
2. Choose the Software tab.
3. Choose the relevant plugin from “Quick-Add Popular Plug-ins”
a. Subclipse 1.4.x (w/related)
b. Subclipse 1.6.x (w/related)
c. Subversive Plug-in (w/related)
4. Right click on the same and click on [add to profile].
5. Select the software to be installed and click on [OK]
6. Click on [Apply x changes] button under *Pending Changes* and follow the wizard till completion
7. When prompted, choose to restart the IDE

In case you have followed above approach and you are facing issue, please answer below queries to help me investigate further –
1. Open MyEclipse IDE, from menu options click on MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details > [Copy to Clipboard] and paste the same here
2. Clear your .log file located at [your workspace dir]/.metadata/.log, replicate the issue and attach the same here
3. Attach a screenshot of the issue you are facing to help me get a visual
4. Are you behind firewall / proxy? If yes, ensure you have configured the same here – window > preferences > general > network connections

Thankyou for the response Joy,

Initially i did not try the steps you mentioned, i was trying to look under Help tab for Software update as that is how i used to add new plugins in MYEclipse6.6 version.
But then i got help from some person in Myeclipse Subscription team and he told me the steps you mentioned.

So, i installed subclipse 1.6, it did not work. It gave me an error saying
“Unable to load default SVNClient”,
then i installed subversive plugin and it worked.

Now my question is “Don’t we have Install/Update under Preferences and Software updates under Help any more”, From which version of MyEclipse is this change?

Even the Help Document points me to Software updates under help tag.

Thankyou,
Krant

Krant,

Good to hear you are all set. From version 8 onwards MyEclipse Configuration Center is used to install / update software. Could you please share the weblink / point me to the help document you are referring to.

Best

In MyEclipse, we have Help tab, Under the Help tag there is Help Contents,
I clicked on it and it opens a help window. I entered “install” in the search window and
it gave me multiple links, one of it is “Installing software using install wizard” and when i click on it, the first point says Click Help > Install new Software, and it is a hyperlink .. when i click on it, it takes me to the install software page like what we had in MyWclipse 6.6.

Not only “Install software using install wizar” looks old, even install/update link points to install/update under preferences.

I hope i am clear if not please let me know i will send you some screenshots.

Thankyou,
Kranthi.

Kranthi,

Thank you for the details. I do see this issue. I have raised a PR for the dev team. Sorry for the inconvenience.
