Eclipse plugin installation/update issues

4
votes

I've installed the following Team repository plugins (along with it's dependencies) for Eclipse Helios (using Eclipse updater).

  • MercurialEclipse 1.7.1
  • Subclipse 1.6.17
  • Subversive SVN

All of these are the latest in Eclipse Marketplace. My problem is when I go to Eclipse "Preferences", under "Team" I only see CVS but under Eclipse Marketplace, I can see that these plugins are installed (it gives me an option to uninstall it).

  • How do I configure my Team repositories to reflect under "Team" in Preferences?

  • Also, there is an update for "Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers, but when I try to update it, the following error occurs:

    Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency. Software being installed: Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers 1.3.2.20110301-1807 (epp.package.jee 1.3.2.20110301-1807) Software currently installed: Shared profile 1.0.0.1276787175574 (SharedProfile_epp.package.jee 1.0.0.1276787175574) Only one of the following can be installed at once: toolingepp.package.jee.configuration 1.3.2.20110301-1807 toolingepp.package.jee.configuration 1.3.0.20100617-0521 Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Shared profile 1.0.0.1276787175574 (SharedProfile_epp.package.jee 1.0.0.1276787175574) To: toolingepp.package.jee.configuration [1.3.0.20100617-0521] Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers 1.3.2.20110301-1807 (epp.package.jee 1.3.2.20110301-1807) To: toolingepp.package.jee.configuration [1.3.2.20110301-1807]

How do I solve it? Yes, I've spent days Googling for this issue but none solved my problem.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think it is a good idea to install both Subclipse and Subversive into one Eclipse installation. Both are dealing with Subversion resources which will lead to conflicts and situations in which Eclipse behaves strange. – Robert

For the first question, if you go to Help -> About -> Installation Details -> plug-ins tab do you see, eg for Subversive: subversive plug-ins

Are you doing this on a Windows 7 machine? Try running Eclipse as an administrator and then do the update.

Answering the second point of your question. Try executing eclipse as root/Administrator.

I had the same problem and I solved it.
