I just installed a new version of eclipse IDE(2020-12) and tried to install the plugins I had on the older version but had no success.
As shown in the picture, when I find the plugin in the Eclipse marketplace and click install, "install pending" shows up and nothing happens. I neither get any pop-ups that ask me to proceed with the installation nor see any progress at the bottom right of the eclipse window. For the older version(2019-06), I can install without any changes in preferences or some other sort of settings. I wonder what could cause this issue?
I have the same problem but it works via update site: http://editbox.sourceforge.net/updates
From Eclipse menu open: Help->Install New Software and paste the link.
I think the problem is with Editbox but I can't figure out what exactly is wrong (I'm the author of the plugin).

I have already installed Windowbuilder in my eclipse IDE Mars it worked fine before, but after Eclipse latest changes i am unable to install windowsbuilder with the provided URL of specific IDE Windowbuilder. later i figured out that we must install the Windowbuilder by downloading the repository.zip file. i have downloaded and installed it but still unable to create a JFrame in my Java Project. But what i am confused is i am able to paste a SWT/AWT code in a simple Java Class file and able to execute it.
have installed the repository .zip
No JFrame found after installation.
updated error
GO this route as it has worked for me: Go to help menu in eclipse go to "About Eclipse" in the bottom left corner click on "Installation Details", click the "installed software" tab, search for window builder and click to delete all features for it. Restart Eclipse, then instead of installing window builder using the "install new software" menu in help, open eclipse market place, search for window builder and install it that way, when you get the options you want to install click on Swing that lets you create JFrames. If that does not work, download a new copy of eclipse and go back to the market place and install window builder again, its possible you have conflicting plugins in your installation. I was able to install it in 2018-09 just yesterday, if that still does not work please comment.
I just downloaded the Eclipse Java EE IDE (64-bit) for Ubuntu 10.04.4. I was trying to install some plug-ins by using Help --> Install New Software. But when I select any site in the consequently appearing dialog-box, the "Next" button is not enabled.
I tried un-installing and re-installing eclipse, getting the tar file of eclipse, even the classic IDE of eclipse, running eclipse as root and nothing seems to work.
Can somebody tell me what's wrong?
P.S. I am attaching a screenshot of the problem
It looks like the install dialog got squeshed vertically. There should be a big table of stuff to install. Try making the dialog bigger.
Click on already installed link and see if the plugin is already installed. Uninstall it -> Restart -> Repeat -> Next button should be enabled
I'm trying to uninstall Tasktop from my Eclipse IDE, but when I select it the uninstall button keeps being disabled (maybe because of some dependent plugin I can't find)
Has anyone had a similar experience? I could use some pointers on how to get this plugin uninstalled.
I had other problem with the task top plugin. I followed the conventional way to uninstall the plugin. Help -> About Eclipse -> Installed Software. The plugin was removed from the list of installed software, but still existed as a plugin, Even after resets.
As a last option I manually removed all com.tasktop.* jars and directories from the eclipse\plugin directory. That seems to do the work without any side effect damage for now.
Of course you will have to close eclipse prior to the above action.
Where are you going for the uninstall? If you go to Help -> About Eclipse -> Installed Software, you should be able to uninstall any top-level feature there. Is this not your experience?
Had some strange errors, described here: lost in deployment: session.getAttribute() returns NULL in some Tomcat configurations and been advised to remove the SysDeo plugin.
Googled on how to remove plugins in Eclipse 3.6, found the plugin in Eclipse Installation Details, still looking for some "uninstall/remove" button. Or should I just remove the files from some of the eclipse sub-folders (contrary to what is written in Eclipse tutorials) and it'll work?
Thanks!
Help->About>Installation details->Installed software tab
Click on the software that you want to unistall and the "uninstall" button becames enabled. Click that button to uninstall the software.
EDIT: In your comment you say that you installed the plugin by dropping it in the "dropins" folder. Well, according to this, the way to uninstall it would be to just delete it from the "dropins" folder and restart Eclipse.
i tried fedora12 yesterday, but i find eclipse doesn't work. at first i thought this problem is related to SELinux, but after i turn off selinux, i still can't
create a project, i press the "next" or "finish" button, there is no response. well the "cancel" button works. there is no error popup, or error logs.
i tried eclipse -debug -console; but there is no log output when i click the button. it is so weird, is this happened to anyone before?
environment: fedora12, JDK 1.6.0_17, eclipse Galileo.
computer: t400.
This is a bug due to a change introduced in GTK 2.18, see Bug 291257. The current workaround is to export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true before to run Eclipse. I actually use the following startup script:
#!/bin/sh
export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/mozilla/
export ECLIPSE_HOME=/opt/IBM/eclipse
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true
$ECLIPSE_HOME/eclipse $*
I can't install plugins from update sites, either.
In a blank eclipse install, adding a new update site (es: jboss tools) using the keyboard works; also, it's possible to select a release to install from the available software list.
The new plugin gets installed, but won't appear in perspectives (es: jboss devel) after restart.
After that, adding new update sites and trying to install their releases won't work, the available software list remains empty.
Using Fedora 12 Eclipse 3.5..
By the way, "Fedora Eclipse" rpm is screwed at the moment, it won't install a single file
SOLUTION:
Eclipse 3.6 fix those problems http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/
Just add helios update site
There seems to be an incompatability with gtk/gdk shipped with F12. You can tell eclipse to use the native GDK and it should correct these problems:
GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 ./eclipse
You can also add -DGDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 to your eclipse.ini file. That should help if you switch workspaces.
it's a bug, the keyboard works. try it.
