Hey!

Did you install GGTS 3.0.0 from the distribution downloads? Or did you install it into an existing Eclipse?
From the error message it looks like there is a conflict between different Eclipse versions going on. Can you tell me what Eclipse version you used to install and how you installed GGTS then? And what other update sites are active on your installation?

Hey!

-Martin

I installed a clean GGTS copy decompressing the distribution archive from http://download.springsource.com/rel...nux-gtk.tar.gz
Then (and maybe this is my fault) I installed some plugins using |File||Import|Install|From existing installation| taking them from the previous STS 2.9 installation. No warning. No alert. No update sites added. Plugins were installed successfully. Then I installed some other plugins (like the fullscreen plugin) that in the meantime I removed just to check if they were responsible for this problem.

This is the list of currently enabled update sites:
* http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno
* http://dist.springsource.com/release...LS/update/e4.2
* http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x
* http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.8.x
* http://dist.springsource.com/release...0.RELEASE/e3.7

UPDATE: I forgot to mention that after the clean install I also added some extensions from the dashboard: namely "gradle support", "subclipse" and the "performance patch for Bug 386070". Installing these extensions seems enough to reproduce the problem... I'll give you more info asap

@Martin
Now I'm sure enough: decompressing the distribution archive from http://download.springsource.com/rel...nux-gtk.tar.gz and then installing "Gradle Support" from the Dashboard "Extensions" tab is enough to reproduce the problem.

I saw installing Gradle support introduces the following components:
Gradle IDE 3.0.0.201208090949-RELEASE org.springsource.ide.eclipse.gradle.feature.featur e.group
Gradle Tooling Api 3.0.0.201208090949-RELEASE org.gradle.toolingapi.feature.feature.group

Please tell me if you need more info.

Hey!

I looked into this in more detail and have identified the issue:
The extension install item for Gradle pointed to the Eclipse 3.7-based update site and didn't distinguish this depending on the platform that you are running on. This caused this update site to creep in:
http://dist.springsource.com/release...0.RELEASE/e3.7

I fixed this and the Gradle extension is now correct and should always install from the correct update site. In case you already installed it from the wrong update site, you should just delete the mentioned update site from the list of available update sites (Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Update Sites). After that, installing updates should work again.

HTH,
Martin

yes, I've simply disabled http://dist.springsource.com/release...0.RELEASE/e3.7 and now Check for updates give me No updates were found.
I guess it's right cause I still have both http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno and http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/e4.2 enabled, so when some updates will be available I should get them with no problem.

Many thanks

Link problem:
I wanted to download the update site so I can install Grails tools offline inside Eclispe 3.7.2. However the links pointed to Spring tools always:

2012-08-30_10-54-12.jpg

That zip does not contain Grails tools
2012-08-30_12-23-17.jpg

Is it a wrong link?

[Martin Lippert]

Hey!

The link is correct, the archived update sites are combined update sites that should contain everything (all the different pieces of STS and GGTS), but due to a bug in the build script the archive for the 3.0.0 release contains only the pieces from STS, not GGTS.

I will fix that as soon as possible and will let you know when they fixed zip file is ready for download.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey!

I uploaded fixed update site archives. The links should now point to updated files. The CDN might take a while to update those files across all regions. The fixed update site archives are significantly bigger than the old ones, around 180-190MB. So if you still get old versions with something around 120-130MB, you should take the download link, replace "download.springsource.com" with "dist.springsource.com" and download again. That should give you the updated versions.

HTH,
Martin
