sts-3.1.0.RELEASE: simple spring integration template URL? can't create a simple si.

[Martin Lippert]

Hey Geoff!

As mentioned earlier in this thread, this may come from the template project not being downloaded 100% correctly the first time and then the broken data is cached locally (which should not happen, of course, but it looks like this is the case somehow). Does the error come up with a vanilla fresh and empty workspace as well?

Hi Martin,

Yes, when I upgraded STS, I also started a new workspace. Also, just now, I went into my workspace .metadata directory and removed the downloaded template and retried it, and I am getting the same problem.

Hey Geoff!

Ah, now I see, the important information was that it is working on Mac, but not on Windows... :-)
I can reproduce this error on my Windows machine, so we can debug and fix this as soon as possible:

Thanks for the additional details!!!

Hi Martin,

One other thing - I have two user accounts on my Windows 7 machine, and the template appears to work fine when I run from one of the accounts, but not the other. They are both administrator accounts, so I don't think it is permissions-related. The only difference that I can think of is that the account name where it doesn't work has a space in it, and the account name where it does work has no space.

You reproduced this on your machine. By chance, does your account name have a space in it?

Regards,
Geoff

Hey Geoff!

You are right, the problem is not running STS on Windows, but running STS with a workspace that has a space in its path. That way, I was able to reproduce this on my OSX machine as well.

Problem is fixed now in master and will be available with 3.3.0.M1.

Thanks again for the report and the additional details. The hint with the space in the path was perfect!!!

Cheers,

in case any one is tracking this - i had the same problem on my windows build

one of the lads in the development team spotted it - theres a probably a space in your path string to the workspace/project

make a new workspace with a path with no spaces in the path names and it'll probably work

theres a jira out on it and we can expect a fix on 3.3 i hope

Hey Will!

As mentioned in my previous post to this thread, this problem is already fixed and will be available in 3.3.0.M1.
You could also upgrade to a nightly build (using the nightly snapshot update sites) in case you wanna get that fix early.

HTH,
Martin
