error while installing the teiid designer on JBDS 7

[maneuk]

Hi all,

   I am trying to install Teiid Designer (8.6.1.Final-v20150313-2152-B888) in my JBDS 7.0.0.GA but I keep getting this error message:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

   I have tried using the website -  https://devstudio.jboss.com/updates/7.0-development/integration-stack/ - to install the software and also tried downloading the ZIP file then connecting to it locally but both options failed.

Any ideas please?

Thanks

Make sure you have these sites listed in Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio's preference page for Available Software Sites, so that all dependencies can be resolved. There's no reason to use the 7.0-development/ URLs in favour of the 7.0/ URLs since the contents of Teiid Designer (org.teiid.core.designer) 8.6.1.Final-v20150313-2152-B888 are the same in both sites.

By the way, there's a newer versions of Teiid Designer if you want to move to a newer Eclipse baseline.

  Thanks for the prompt response. Whenever I enter the links you mentioned above I get the "Could not find the https..." (see screen print). The error message I mentioned in my main query is based on the local zip file which I downloaded.

   Good to point that my colleagues can install the teiid designer. This seems to be happening only on my machine. It might be some configuration that I am  missing but I can't figure out what!!

   Thoughts please?

Are you behind a proxy which prevents access to https?

If you need an entirely offline solution, here's the target platform zip used to build JBDS 7:

Hi Nick,

   I am behind a proxy which is configured in the same way as my colleagues and it works for them. I have tried changing it, I am still getting the error but I am just wondering if there is any kind of cache that I need to flush out of JBDS memory before trying to connect again?

   If that doesn't work then I will try installing the offline solution.

Thanks

I can't speak to your network, but you could try using -clean when starting Eclipse or JBDS to force it to pretend it's a first startup.

Or you could go into Preferences > Update > Available Update Sites (having fixed your proxy) and then refresh/reload the individual URLs one by one.

Failing that... Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Reboot the machine, COLD restart JBDS/Eclipse [not just using File > Restart but shutting it down fully then restarting it from scratch. Warm restarts keep caches alive because the Java thread never dies], etc.
