I have been around 4 hours trying to install the Google Plugin for Eclipse Luna. I followed every step of the installing guide but when i finished the Google Logo for starting a new project didnt appear as it should:

like this

As you can see even though i have the plugins installed i cant see the icon or start a new web project.

enter image description here

My operating sysyem is OSx Yosemite. I tried updating to Java 8 and JDK 8 (and 7) and deleting all the files as this question recommends. Also deleted and "reinstalled" eclipse and the plugin a lot of times but didn't workout.

Anybody with the same problem? Thanks a lot.

I had the exact same problem on my new MacBook. I had to install JDK 7. I downloaded and installed the Mac OS X x64 version of 7u75 from here: JDK 7 Downloads

After it installs make sure it's the system default by executing the following from the Terminal:

/usr/libexec/java_home

If it looks good to go then just restart eclipse and you should be good to go.

I suggest you even to delete your Eclipse_Luna:

Re-install your Eclipse and then install the GAE-plugin again.

Remember to re-start your Eclipse after you've successfully install the GAE-plugin for Eclipse_Luna.

I faced the same issue. I installed JDK 1.7 and used 1.7 jre for eclipse as mapped and downloaded the eclpise plugin AND restarted and it worked fine.
