Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-2797:
----------------------------------

{quote}For the discovery site...{quote}
https://devstudio.jboss.com/updates/7.0/devstudio-directory.xml -> https://devstudio.jboss.com/updates/7.0/discovery/com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery_7.0.1.Final-v20130924-1242-B2.jar -> {code}
 <connectorDescriptor
...
            siteUrl="${jboss.discovery.site.url:https://devstudio.jboss.com/updates/7.0/central/core/}">
...
      </connectorDescriptor>
{code}

So... problem is not in the Central discovery XML or the plugin. Both point at the correct place (the released 7.0 Central site).

If the user has changed the value of *-Djboss.discovery.site.url* in their .ini file, or set it via their commandline invocation, then a different XML file might be used which would then point at a different plugin jar. (eg., the 7.0-development/ site instead of the 7.0/ site).

Or perhaps the update mechanism is not correctly performing all the p2.inf steps outlined here:

https://github.com/jbdevstudio/jbdevstudio-product/blob/jbosstools-4.1.0.x/features/com.jboss.jbds.product.feature/p2.inf
https://github.com/jbdevstudio/jbdevstudio-product/blob/jbosstools-4.1.0.x/site/com.jboss.jbds.p2.inf

> User noticed issues with 7.0.0 to 7.0.1 updates at https://community.jboss.org/message/841477#841477 that needs investigation.
> The post is about osx but I don't think this is limited to this OS, just that OSX has a different java behavior.
> Worrisome issues are:
> development url used in GA update:
> -Djboss.discovery.directory.url=https://devstudio.jboss.com/updates/7.0-development/devstudio-directory.xml
> startup/launcher directories are hardcoded in the .ini file:
> -startup
> ../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20130327-1440.jar
> --launcher.library
> ../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.200.v20130807-1835
> Have these been forgotten/set wrong in the update or is this some specific update path that is failing ?
