Installing designer 10.0 into Eclipse or JBDS

[dalepres]

I'm trying to install Teiid Designer into Eclipse.  I've followed the instructions at Download & Install - JBoss Community.  I've also followed the instructions on that page trying to install Designer into JBDS.  On both platforms, following the instructions specific to each platform, I get an error that it can't find all the dependencies, specifically, DataTools Connectivity and RunTIme Clients.

I remember seeing a forum post about an additional, not otherwise documented, source that has to be added in order to succeed in installing designer but I've tried for over an hour tonight to find it and I can't find that thread or the instructions.

Can anyone provide the missing link for installing teiid designer 10.0 on Eclipse Mars or JBDS 9.0 or 9.1?

Thanks,

Dale

THe error message is below:

Can you verify that you've completed this step prior to installing Designer 10.0? 

• Add... Jboss Tools Mars compatible update site: 
  • Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio 9.x - Integration Stack Updates

• make sure “Contact all update sites during install to find required software”
• Do not continue installing this update site. Various dependent plugins required for Teiid Designer 10.0 installation (next step), will now be available

This saxon plugin is a 3rd party plugin and built as part of the integration stack and shareable across JBoss projects rather than just Teiid Designer.

Thanks for the response, Barry.  I tried adding the site you mentioned but I still cannot install Teiid Designer in Eclipse.  Here's the error message:

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

These are the Red Hat or JBoss sites added to Eclipse.  I'm sure there are some unneeded ones that I added in trying to solve the problem:

  JBoss Early Access https://devstudio.redhat.com/9.0/development/updates/integration-stack/earlyaccess Enabled

  JBoss Tools Target - Mars http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/mars/ Enabled

  JBoss Tools Integration Stack Update Site http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/mars/development/updates/integration-stack/ Enabled

  JBoss Tools Updates Mars http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/mars/ Enabled

  Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio Integration Stack Update Site https://devstudio.redhat.com/9.0/development/updates/integration-stack Enabled

These are the default Eclipse sites configured:

  http://download.eclipse.org/mylyn/releases/3.17 Disabled

After further research and testing, I found that these three JBoss sites must be added to the Add New Software utility in order to install Teiid Designer 10.0 on Mars.2

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/mars/development/updates/integration-stack/earlyaccess

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/mars/

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/release/mars/integration-stack/teiiddesigner/10.0.0.Final/

Don't install anything from the first two; just add them to make them available when needed.  After adding the third site, check the box to select the Data Virtualization category and all of the items in that category.  Click Next and follow the screen.

There are a couple differences between what worked for me shown in this post and what's shown in the instructions at Download & Install - JBoss Community.  The first link I show above is not in the instructions shown on the Download & Install page.  Two of the sites that are listed on the Download & Install page do not appear to be required.  I tried this pattern again on a fresh Centos VM and it works.  I have only to connect to my remote Teiid server to call this set up perfect.

It appears that either the Mars 2 version or the JBDS 9.1 GA changed a bit. The old instructions worked for JBDS 9.0. GA worked but I verified that your changes to the install instructions are needed. They also work with JBDS 9.0.

I've updated the Teiid Designer download page instructions.

thx for investigating this!
