Error Installing JBoss Tools Nightly on Helios

david.salter Jul 5, 2010 5:41 AM

Hi,

I'm trying to install JBoss Tools Nightly (from the update center http://downloads.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/trunk/) into Helios running on Windows 7.

It all looks as though its going to install correctly, but then Eclipse displays an error stating that "Installing software has encountered a problem" and the error below is shown.

Anyone know how to get around this?

Thanks.

Dave.

An error occurred while installing the items

session context was:(profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Install, operand=null --> [R]org.mozilla.xpcom 1.9.1.2a, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.eclipse.actions.InstallBundleAction).

The artifact file for osgi.bundle,org.mozilla.xpcom,1.9.1.2a was not found.

I've just tried again to install the nightlies on Windows 32-bit Helios and it all installed correctly.

On Windows 64-bit Helios, it looks like the install doesn't include XULRunner so it doesn't work.

Is this an error that should be reported on JIRA, or a known issue with 64-bit Helios?

Cheers.

known issue - there is no 64 bit xulrunner and we are working on making the xulrunner optional so it would possible to install everything but the visual part of the page editor.

Hi, thanks for that.

I'll stick with the 32-bit at the moment as I like to use the visual page editor.

Cheers.
