[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-4184) Can't update/install plugins

[Nick Boldt (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-4184?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Nick Boldt resolved JBDS-4184.
------------------------------
    Resolution: Done


Since the scenario described (install BYOE category from snapshots update site) now works, I'm resolving this.

If the issue w/ not being able to discover updates is a problem, please open a new issue. I thought that might be caused by the fact that the RPM install mostly includes PLUGINS in the droplets folder, but it also includes com.jboss.devstudio.core.rpm.feature_10.2.0 which SHOULD be found on the snapshots site and updated. 

Suspect the problem is that Eclipse isn't sure if these features are "installed" or "dropped in" and so doesn't have all the correct metadata available. But as I said, I can't figure out how to force the migration wizard to appear on startup... so... unless we can pregenerate the metadata that needs to be generated as part of the rpm install, I don't know what else to guess here.

> I tried "Check for Updates" in DevStudio 20161116.1305 and 20161113.1010. I used this update site:
> [1] https://devstudio.redhat.com/10.0/snapshots/updates/
> Eclipse was not able to detect any updates (I got "No updates were found" message).
> Then I tried to install plugins using "Install new software".
> Install new software->select Bring Your Own Eclipse->next->restart
> Eclipse didn't detect any problems or conflicts during installation but after restart I got a lot of errors and eclipse didn't start.

>  [^rh-eclipse46-devstudio10.2.log.20161113.1010_update.txt] 
> I also noticed there isn't update site [1] by default after installation. I had to add it.
