All SAP Web IDE workspace projects have disappeared - sap-cloud-platform

On opening up the SAP Web IDE (Full Stack version) this morning, to my surprise all of my projects have been removed from my Workspace. I did have about 6 projects, which have now just disappeared.
Has anyone encountered this before / know a possible solution to get them back. It's only the trail SCP account, so I can't even get any support via SAP.

Turns out there is an ongoing issue where projects are still there but cannot be displayed. Happening to some users on the Full Stack version of the Web IDE, confirmed via thread on SAP Answers.

Eclipse offline Extensions install in an almost completely closed environment (proxy)

Initial position:
Currently I'm at a customer's site who has completely locked up his system (VM), and through a proxy blocks nearly everything, including the connections to download the extensions of Eclipse.
In the Eclipse marketplace you can find the download links, but they are of no use to me. Since the proxy locks everything out.
If you use the download link, you will get to this page, which ONLY refers to the integration in Eclipse via the web. This is currently not possible for me!
A reference to the M2E version only leads to the page mentioned above.
https://www.eclipse.org/m2e/
The customer only allows Eclipse no other programs.
It is unbelievable ^^
Is there a way to install offline extensions in Eclipse like Visual Studio code?
What I need is a Maven/Java based version, including Jenkins integration.
I currently used a portable version of Eclipse from the points already described. Yes, the download of complete versions is possible and not blocked, just the integration of plugins and extensions.

Bluemix and the Remote Systems View in Eclipse

I just updated all of my plugins and noticed the "Application and Services" tab of the IBM Bluemix view has a link says "Show deployed files in Remote Systems View". When I click on that link, it opens the view and I can drill down to my apps but it does not show me any files or anything useful. Can this view (or a different view) show file contents on bluemix? This would be really useful especially since the files app was removed when the Diego upgrade happened.
I just tried using Neon.2 with the latest version of the IBM Eclipse Tools for Bluemix from the Eclipse market place and deploy a new application. The Remote System View is showing the files correctly for me.
Note that the problem may happen for older version of the product. What version of the product (Eclipse and Bluemix Tools) and also what platform are you using?
The other thing that you can try is to deploy a new simple application to see if the problem is specific to that application.
It does show the files that are deployed. Attached is an image that I see

Unable to read repository at http://download.eclipse.org/releases/

I have read and researched this issue through stackoverflow and other sites to no avail. I am stuck and would like to know if anyone has a definitive answer,
I have downloaded and tried "installing new software" for eclipse mars, juno and kepler - all with the same result (unable to read...).
I have turned off firewall and disabled anti-virus.
I have been able to download repositories from other sites (listed as default in the combobox for available sites) - just not the respositories for the above versions.
I have various versions of eclipse (on various machines and platforms too) to manage Android, Java and Python (and have never had a problem with the repositories). Each version is physically separate.
I am using Vista Ultimate on a home network - so no proxy issues.
I have tried changing the ini file for -vmargs again to no avail. I have tried deleting and reloading the repository.
The best answer I have read so far was that "it suddenly started working again" leading me to believe that the problem is at Eclipse's end.
Is there something I have missed or have not tried?
All I want is an Eclipse based Javascript editor!
The release repository is specific to the release of Eclipse, for Eclipse Mars it is http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars This should already be in your Available Software Sites list.

Could not initialize class org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.project.facet.IJ2EEFacetConstants

I am Running Eclipse Kelper Build id: 20130614-0229 (the latest at time of writing)
I have installed the Web Tools Platform (WTP) and I am using a 'static web project'.
I keep getting an error alert box popping up with the error
Could not initialize class org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.project.facet.IJ2EEFacetConstants
Okay I have searched high and low for a solution, but of course the solution seems to be different for every version of eclipse. I went to a bug post on this at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=389968
but the advice was just to "get the right version of EPP for your workspace"
Okay so that advice is no help at all. How does one know what is the right version of their workspace? what do they mean by that anyway? by "for your workspace" are they referring to your version of Eclipse? or is that a separate issue?
I saw another response to this issue on stack overflow for Eclipse Juno, but it was simply a link to a temporary patch update site which no longer exists. Someone else on that thread claimed that Kelper had a fix for all of this. Clearly that is not the case and the people at Eclipse.org do not think this is a bug.
From update site, install below item:
|> Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development
* Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
I would guess that you are seeing this issue because you have not installed enough of WTP. That doesn't make this problem less of an issue, but at least you can look for workarounds in how you construct your installation. The easiest solution is to grab the "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers" package.

You need to install the JST Enterprise Core feature, org.eclipse.jst.enterprise_core.feature

Eclipse Indigo crashes after installing GWT

I was trying to set up GWT(Google Web Toolkit) on my system using it as a plugin for eclipse Indigo. I am currently on a Ubuntu workstation. Upon restart after the installation, eclipse simply crashes without any error info. I did look around here on stack overflow , as well as on google about what could be done, but the things which seemed to work for others do not seem to work for me.( deleting certain .jar files, deleting the metadata folder in the workspace).
Any help would be great.
Regards
Problem solved. There is a bug in Indigo , exposed by the plugin. All that needs to be done is to check for updates first and then install the plugin. The bug has been fixed in one of the point updates.
