Eclipse plugin is not working on reinstalling

I am using a custom plugin which is integrated to the Eclipse IDE which is used at my workplace, this integration happens on Maven build. This plugin works fine. Now if I uninstall the custom plugin and reinstall the same custom plugin, it does not work. It throws

But I think this should not be an issue as the same plugin works with a standalone eclipse. Is there any why for me to enable logs so that I get to know what is happneing when I install or uninstall a plugin. The above logs
It looks like the problem arises because of the firewall. I've had a similar problem, I hope this helps.

After i deleted plugin, it is still executing in my eclipse

i have created a plugin for eclipse and created update site for it and everything. I installed on my Eclipse and it worked like a charm.
But then i want to remove the plugin.
I have tried using help>install new software>what´s already installed>click on plugin name > uninstall...
It didn´t work, the plugin is still on my eclipse.
I have tried deleting the .jar on my plugins folder...
It didn´t work, the plugin is still on my eclipse(i know that because my plugin does something when my mouse is hovering a method).
What do i do? How can I(and my plugin users) remove this plugin?
By the way, to build my plugin website, i used this tutorial:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_create_an_update_site_(site.xml)%3F
And uploaded my plugin on my website
When the plugin is installed using Features:
To Uninstall a plug-in from Eclipse the usual UI way is to select About Eclipse then click Installation Details button and select the plugin you want to uninstall. Then click Uninstall button.
When the plugin is not installed with a Feature:
When you have installed it in your running Eclipse from the Plug-in Export dialog, and after as you have done deleting the plug-in from your plugins directory, you need to restart Eclipse from the command line using the -clean flag. This will rebuild the plugin cache. This is very low-level and not recommended.
Lessons:
- Always develop plugins using features

Can't Install Eclipse Juno CheckStyle Plugin

I heard that a good plugin for metrics for Java Eclipse was the CheckStyle plugin. So I try and follow their instructions on how to install it, but I keep getting the following:
Can someone kindly point out how I can fix this problem?
Thank You.
I think I fully know why it didn't work. There was an Eclipse Juno update that I had to run. For the update to happen, I had to run Eclipse as Administrator. Then ran the update, and it worked, i.e. it updated successfully.
I then ran the CheckStyle plug-in install as instructed on their website, and it worked fine.
Hope this helps.

How to safely update a grails plugin

I've been working on a grails project for a while now and some of the plugins I installed initially have been updated.
I ran the following scripts to see what plugins needed updating
grails list-plugin-updates
and the result was
Plugins with available updates are listed below:
-------------------------------------------------------------
<Plugin> <Current> <Available>
joda-time 1.1 1.2
jquery 1.4.4.1 1.6.1.1
jquery-ui 1.8.7 1.8.11
recaptcha 0.5.0 0.5.2
searchable 0.5.5.1 0.6
spring-security-core1.1
tomcat 1.3.7 1.3.7.2
Now how do I go about updating all or some these plugins?
Is it a matter of uninstalling and reinstalling each one?
How does this affect usages/references to the plugin in the main code?
To update a plugin you just run install-plugin again and it'll detect that the plugin's already installed and will remove the old one and install the new one. For a small version delta this should be fine, but I'd do them one at a time and test in-between (but do the 2 JQuery plugins together).
If you're lucky the plugin either has no compatibility issues, or they're documented in the plugin docs, so be sure to check there before upgrading.
From Grails 2.2 on, you should change the plugins section of BuildConfig.groovy. After that you should run 'refresh-dependencies'.
If you use Groovy/Grails Tool Suite or something similar, you should simply right click on your project > Grails Tools > Refresh Dependencies. This will run the grails command which will update your dependencies, but it will also update your project.

Eclipse Java EE - Galileo - Unable to view plugins

I am new to Eclipse so I am having a hard time troubleshooting this problem. I have a new installation of Eclipse Java EE - Galileo on Windows, and I am unable to see any changes made in the IDE after installing plugins. I have verified that the plugins are installed via installation details, but see no changes made.
For example, after installing the maven integration plugin m2eclipse I go to File->New->Project ... and I have no option for maven. After installing the QuickRex plugin I have no view for it etc.
I have tried re-installing the plugins, re-installing Eclipse, and starting Eclipse with the -clean option, but nothing has resolved the issue.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Ok. This is just a wild guess but could you start over with a fresh install and make sure that you uncheck the option Contact all update sites during install to find required software as shown below:

I faced a similar problem (on another platform than yours), some updates were "disabling" all my plugins. Not checking this option allowed me to work around this issue.
Follow-up: You'll need to install that Zest stuff manually from the GEF update site:
