[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBIDE-4089) http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/plugins/org.eclipse.birt.integration.wtp.ui_2.3.2.r232_20090122.jar. is 404d

Just for your information, I copy/pasted the error as played to me by eclipse. This is the most noticed "kill" of the install. This is using the http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/ ----------------------------------------------------- http://www.jboss.org/tools/downloadUpdate operation has failed Error retrieving "plugins/org.eclipse.birt.integration.wtp.ui_2.3.2.r232_20090122.jar". [Server returned HTTP response code: "404 Not Found" for URL: http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/plugins/org.eclipse.b...] Server returned HTTP response code: "404 Not Found" for URL: http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/plugins/org.eclipse.b.... -------------------------------------------------------- It might be a timeout, but afaik 404 is what is told by the server to me. If you want me to, I can try to rip the connection whilst downloading and see what that brings, but I am reasonably sure that it would not be 404. Once again, that you for taking the time and care in answering. Much appreciated.
