I've been reviewing current postings on installing the JBOSS-IDE with Eclipse, but I don't think I see a response to the issue I'm having. I'm using Eclipse v2.1.2. I would like to install the JBOSS-IDE. I found directions which tell me to complete the following steps:
1. Click Help—>Software Updates—>Update Manager.
2. In the Feature Updates view, right click and select New—>Site Bookmark.
3. Select an unused name for the bookmark and then set the bookmark at http://jboss.sourceforge.net/jbosside/updates.
4. Expand the bookmark that was added and select JBoss-IDE 1.0/Eclipse 2.1.
5. You should now see the available versions of the plugin. Select the latest version.
6. You will be prompted to restart Eclipse.
Unfortunately, I can't get past step 3. When I try to expand the bookmark, it tells me there were errors accessing the site. I have added my proxy to the Preferences section, but this seems to have made no difference. Is there anything I might be doing wrong?
are you sure that your proxy lets out java programs? our was configured to allow only User-Agent containig the string Mozilla.
therefore we forced the admin to add Java/1.4.2 (or different version) string. and it works
maybe it will work for you aswell
good luck
