Many posts in the http://jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewforum&f=201 are related to the installation, so it is a good place to gather the experience of the community. Please, follow the formalism of the page setup and don't duplicate information.   - ----   *Q : How do I install JBoss Eclipse IDE ?*   *A* : Please read our official installation guide here: http://docs.jboss.com/jbosside/install/build/en/html/index.html   You can also find the complete step-by-step installation procedure in a downloadable PDF, http://docs.jboss.com/jbosside/install/build/en/pdf/JBossIDE-Install.pdf   Note:   If you are using Java 1.4.2_05 or later to launch JBoss from the IDE, you must set a VM argument in your JBoss-IDE launch configuration(s) or you will get an exception when you launch. Please see the http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-10409 for instructions in the Launching Topics section.   - ----   *Q : What are JBoss Eclipse IDE's update sites?* *A*:   ** JBossIDE Stable Update Site (1.6 series): http://download.jboss.org/jbosside/updates/stable ** JBossIDE Development (unstable) Update Site (2.0.0.Beta series): http://download.jboss.org/jbosside/updates/development   - ----   *Q : I am behind a proxy which requires authentification. How can I use the Eclipse install/update manager ?*   *A* : Actually, you can't. Eclipse install/update manager can't handle proxy with authorization. The only choice you have is to download the http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=22866&package_i... and install it manually.   - ----   *Q : I have upgraded my JBoss Eclipse IDE version. Can I delete the plugins from the older version ?*   *A* : Yes, you can safely remove the older plugins. Each release of JBoss Eclipse IDE contains all the plugins needed and they have the same numbering than the release. It avoids compatibility problem and simplify developement.   - ----   *Q : I have created a new J2EE 1.4 Project following the instructions in the "Tutorial" document, but I cannot see "JSP Compilation Support, Packaging Configurations and XDoclet Configurations" in my project properties. Can you help me ?*   *A* : This is answered http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-10409 under "XDoclet integration topics". In brief, check that you are in the java perspective (Window -> Open Perspective-> Java) and that you are right clicking on the project in the Package Explorer view..   - ----   *Q : How can I install the latest nightly build?*   *A* : Read InstallingJBossToolsNightlyBuilds   --------------------------------------------------------------
