GGTS 3.0.0 installed but nothing appears

[Mase]

I installed GGTS 3.0.0 in a new Juno Eclipse and everything seems to go well, reboot and there is no indication that there are any tools available for my Grails project? Do I have to do anything to get it activated? Is there an Open Perspective-> Grails?

Hey!

How did you install GGTS 3.0.0 into a new Juno Eclipse? Using the Marketplace?
You should be able to see a new perspective "Grails", the "Dashboard" (the SpringSource icon) in the toolbar, etc. When you go to the about dialog and take a look at the installation details, is the Grails IDE feature listed there?

I installed into a new Juno Eclipse using the Marketplace. When I look in Windows->Open Perspective->Other there is no Grails entry. In the Installation Details it says Grails IDE 3.0.0 is installed. Not sure if I need to do anything else to turn it on?

Hey!

I tried to install GGTS from the Eclipse Marketplace into a fresh Eclipse JEE Juno and that worked nicely. After the restart I can see the SpringSource logo in the toolbar (for the Dashboard) and I can switch to the Grails perspective.

Did you choose the right entry from the Marketplace (the one for Juno)? If so, I expect there is a conflicting plugin installed in your environment. Could that be?

To analyze that, you would need to go to your console view, open an OSGi Host Concole, and type "ss" (for short status) and take a look at the bundles called "org.grails.ide.eclipse...". What does the output says about those bundles?

Yes I installed the correct version from the Market Place, in fact when I go back and list installed the GGTS for Juno and not for Indigo has a button that says "Uninstall", so the market place software thinks it is installed.

I went to the OSGI Host Console and did a "ss", but there is no entry for org.grails...... at all anywhere in the list? If there is a conflicting plugin I have no idea how to tell that is the case, is there something I can look at?

Hey Mase!

That is kind of strange... Can you take a look into the "plugins" directory of your installation to see if there are "org.grails..." plugins there? And did you try to start Eclipse with the "-clean" option?
