Cannot Install Grails Support in STS 2.6

[sc_num_4]

Hi.

I am also receiving this same error message.

I downloaded STSS from the eclipse marketplace earlier today and was able to download the current release of Grails and Groovy Eclipse from the STSS Install Manager, however, Grails Support will not install from the STSS Install Manager. Any other suggestions?

I'm using Eclipse Helios SR 2 (3.6.2) and STSS 2.60.

It says I'm up to date if I check for updates, and I've added all the Mylyn urls I could find to the software site list (say that "fix" on another site).

Thanks,
-Stephen

Why can you not install Grails support from the install manager? Is there an error report or an entry in the error log?

Same issue everyone else seems to have been having in this thread:

This problem happens because you did not install STS in the preferred way. You do not have org.apache.commons.io installed in your STS.

Instead of going through the install manager, go to Help -> Install New Software. Select this update site (add it if it is not there): http://dist.springsource.com/release...vy-grails/e3.6

Make sure that "Contact all update sites..." is selected.

Then try installing Grails. This will probably work, but if not, then there are other things we can do. Let me know.

Thanks for your help so far Andrew.

I checked the update site and that was listed and "Contact all update sites..." was already selected. So just to be sure, I uninstalled STS and reinstalled it through the Help -> Install New Software dialogue, and I am still receiving the same issue when I try to install Grails Support.

Is there any reason why you haven't installed STS straight from the zip file? You would avoid this whole problem of the missing dependency. You can get it here:

Yes, it fixed the problem. Thank you all for the help.

Hi!



Did that solve your problem?

Mostly because I didn't know there was a difference and I had STS installed in eclipse for another project. It's working now however, thank you for your help.

Fundamentally, both ways of installing are the same, but as you have found out, it is trickier to install using the update sites since it is not guaranteed that all of the necessary prerequisite plugins are available. Let us know if you have any further problems.

Hello,
I'm getting the same error. I tried the update url mentioned above. IT is still not working.
