[Andre Dietisheim (Jira)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-26468?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13665672#comment-13665672 ] 

Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-26468:
------------------------------------------

[~ksuzumur] https://openshift.io is not an OpenShift server, you're using the wrong url. You can find the right url by first going to the openshift server that's listed in your user settings:
 !openshift-io-user-settings.png! 
and once you're in that web-frontend you can copy the "Login Command" for oc and extract the url and token for it:
 !openshift-online-copy-login-command.png!

In this sense your issue is invalid. On other hand I agree that the user experience is bad, there's no way that a new user would know where to get the url from.
So we should think about how to improve things.
