Cannot Install Grails Support in STS 2.6

[Byrill]

I am learning Grails and just installed STS 2.6. I then installed Grails (current production release) and Groovy Eclipse, but Grails Support will not install. It gives me the following error:

Problems occurred while performing installation: Operation details

Is this file temporarily unavailable or is there something wrong?

Hi!

Typically org.apache.commons.io is part of the STS download (or your Eclipse EE installation). Did you download STS as complete package or did you install STS into an existing Eclipse installation (via "Install New Software")?

I installed STS into an existing Eclipse EE installation. This installation was downloaded from PortableApps.com.

Make sure that when you perform the install that "Contact all update sites..." is checked in your update manager.

I have the same issue. I'm trying to install grails support on OSX, and the option for "contact all update sites" is checked. Still no luck.

I reverted to a previous configuration. Then I installed STS using Install New Software. I had been using The Eclipse Marketplace. I don't know if the Marketplace points to a different package or something.

A previous configuration of what? Eclipse? How?

Will try using the "Install new software" method instead.

In Eclipse Help -> About Eclipse -> Installation Details -> Installation History tab. Select a date under Previous configurations, then click Revert Button at the bottom of the window.

Did that solve your problem?

Hi,
I got the same error using STS 2.6. Don't install the grails plugin with the Eclipse Marketplace, but use the STS Install Manager and it will work.
Kind regards, Philipp.
