Update Site for Earlier Version of Spring Tool Suite - spring-tool-suite

My company's legal department has approved the use of Spring Tool Suite 3.6.3 for Eclipse 4.3. I noticed the eclipse update site for Eclipse 4.3 currently just has Spring Tool Suite 3.6.4. Is there a URL where the earlier Spring Tool Suite 3.6.3 version for Eclipse 4.3 can be downloaded?

Yes, there is. The update site for STS 3.6.3 on Eclipse 4.3 is:
http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/3.6.3.RELEASE/e4.3
The distribution builds of STS 3.6.3 are here:

The Apache Tomcat installation at this directory is version 10.1.1. A Tomcat 10.0 installation is expected

I am trying to add Tomcat 10.1.1 in Eclipse Version: 2022-09 (4.25.0).
Is there a newer version of Eclipse which have latest Tomcat?
This was happening in older version of Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java and Web Developers. This issue is corrected in the version 3.28 of Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java and Web Developers.
If you have the Standard Edition of Eclipse, you can add
'Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java and Web Developers'. This will add the version 3.22 of the software. You can then check for updates and update it to version 3.28

Glassfish 4(development build) + eclipse juno

I am trying some of the new features which are only available in Glassfish4(development build).
My current eclipse plugin does not allow me to connect to glassfish4 - there's no 4.x version in the list.
Is there any way I can make it work? I would like to deploy/start the app from eclipse.
If you are using an Eclipse that is older than Juno... you cannot work with GlassFish 4.
If you have Juno, you can install a plugin that allows you to register GlassFish 4 server run-times. BE SURE TO READ https://blogs.oracle.com/piotrik/entry/new_version_of_glassfish_eclipse before you attempt to update your current GlassFish plugin. If you do not have a GlassFish plugin installed in Juno, you can probably ignore almost all of the content of that page.
If you have Kepler M6 installed, you can try out the GlassFish server adapter (GFSA) and the GlassFish 4 run-time plugin (GF4RTP). The GFSA is available here: http://download.java.net/glassfish/eclipse/kepler
The latest update of the GFSA for Kepler should play nicely with the Java EE 7 features that got integrated into Kepler's milestone 6 release.
The GF4RTP is available here:
http://download.java.net/glassfish/eclipse/kepler/runtime
NOTE: all the bits available under download.java.net/glassfish/eclipse/* are developer stream bits. They are not 'production quality' and are being made available to get feedback from users willing to give them a try. If you have to do something critical, you may want to wait for bits that will be integrated into the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse.

How to deploy on JBoss AS 7 from Eclipse Juno?

I'm using Eclipse Juno and want to test my Java web app in JBoss AS 7. How do I configure Eclipse so that it starts JBoss AS 7 and deploys the war? Also remote debugging should work. It seems I can't use JBoss Tools as they are only released for the previous Eclipse versions (Indigo and Helios).
Any pointers?
It seems that the current stable releases of JBoss Tools supports Eclipse Indigo (3.7.2) and Helios (3.6.x) as detailed here :
Is there a Beta Update site for Juno ?
This page has the details of the update site for Juno :
Instructions will be posted after the first Juno-compatible milestone
is available.
Until then, just point your Eclipse 4.2 (Juno) installation at this
site to install the latest nightly build. Note that there is no
guarantee of quality with a nightly, nor do we guarantee it won't set
your computer on fire.
Update site : JBoss Tools - Core - Nightly Build Update Site
It bears repeating, that the above is unstable at the moment.
Stability of JBoss Tools Beta for Juno ?
From this page:
Since the first version of Eclipse Juno is arriving soon it is worth
mentioning that JBoss Tools from its updatesite can be installed on
top of Juno.
It is though not guaranteed everything works, we know that especially
Hibernate Dali/JPT integration have issues since here the API has
changed greatly.
But if you are a Juno early-adopter then do please try run JBoss Tools
on it and if you find issues let us know in the forum or on JIRA.
Also, this might be of interest :
Our latest Beta, soon coming CR1 runs on Eclipse Juno (3.8/4.2) except for the Eclipse Dali/JPA integration

What's the latest version of Tomcat plugin for Eclipse?

I can only find version 3.2.1 which was released in 2007. Is there a new one?
If you're using Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers, you already get the tools to create Dynamic Web Projects and integrated servletcontainers (which are part of Web Tools Platform, WTP).
The latest WTP release is 3.2.2 from Sept 2010 and this supports up to Tomcat 7, but it's better to go for the integrated IDE rather than just the WTP.

Migrating from Sysdeo to WTP - a bit old though

Spring Eclipse Plugin update site

Can anyone point me to spring-eclipse plug-in update location so I can use spring from my Eclipse IDE?
None of the ones I found online are working!
Spring works fine without any special eclipse plugins. Spring have there own version of eclipse called STS (SpringSource Tool Suite) and you could use that. The installation instructions (pdf) for STS include instructions for installing the STS components into an existing Eclipse 3.5 installation.
