Thomas Mäder commented on JBDS-3903:
------------------------------------
Honestly, I assumed that the docker tooling was installed by the all-in-one (didn't
remember installing it), but I guess I was wrong there, sorry about that. In this case,
may I suggest we improve the error message? The error message I get when I press
"search" in the new connection dialog is something like "a connection was
detected but is not active". When I google for this, I get nothing useful. If we are
trying to use an env-var an it is not set, mentioning it would help more with finding out
what the problem is.
Platform Installer does not Setup Docker Env-Vars

Key: JBDS-3903
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3903
Project: Red Hat Developer Studio (DevStudio)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: docker, platform-installer
Affects Versions: 10.0.0.Alpha1
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Thomas Mäder
Assignee: Denis Golovin
I have installed CDK, etc. from the "all in one" installer. Later, I tried to
use Docker tooling. I opened the view "Docker Explorer". There was no connection
shown. I tried to add a new one, but the system did not detect my default connection.
Later, I ran "Docker Quickstart Terminal" from the start menu. Now the
"New Connection" dialog in docker explorer picked up the default connection.
As a user, I have no indication that I have to run the docker terminal in order to use
the docker tooling in eclipse. If there are environment variables to be set up, the
installer should do so. It is the reasonable expectation on Windows.
