Rick Wagner commented on JBDS-4065:
-----------------------------------

Thank you for that note, Martin.  It help explains some of what I was experiencing.
I was unaware of the cached information (both in the workspace and in the Eclipse Keychain).  Knowing this, things are more clear.
I am concerned for other users that try to upgrade.  (Hopefully there won't be many going from 1.0 to 1.1.  For those that do, CEE now understands how to help them.)  
With luck, the new 'uninstaller' provided with 1.1 onward will make such problems nonexistent after this.  (Fingers crossed!)

>             Project: Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio (devstudio)
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: cdk, platform-installer
>    Affects Versions: 10.1.0.GA
>         Environment: Windows 10, DevSuite Installer 1.0 had been run
>            Reporter: Rick Wagner
>            Assignee: Rob Stryker
>
> When running the DevSuite 1.1 installer, DevStudio is not connected to the installed CDK.
> Observations:
> - All components removed before installation, does not help.  (VirtualBox and Vagrant using Add/Remove programs, everything else directory-deleted, Environment variables cleaned).
> - DevStudio says it can't start the Container Development Environment server.  ('Failed to find Vagrant!' reads the error).  If I open Launch Configuration, it lists the Main as "C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant\bin\vagrant.exe", which is not in the installation directory.
> - It was noted that DevStudio marked itself 'completed' before Vagrant was installed.  How does DevStudio know where Vagrant is?
> - It's noted that DevStudio 'remembers' user settings (i.e. CDK registration user/password) from previous attempts.  Where is this information kept?  I must've missed something in cleanup.
> - Tried full suite installation, then deleting DevStudio, then re-installing.  (Hoping DevStudio would then find Vagrant in the right location, because it followed Vagrant's installation.) Result:  No Container Development Environment server is present in 'server' view.
