Jess Editor Plugin not Appearing in Eclipse Luna - eclipse

I have the Jess DE installed on an old version of Eclipse (Helios), and when I open any of my Jess files there, they are nicely displayed with appropriate colors, etc. I installed a newer version of Eclipse (Luna) in order to install PyDev, and meanwhile added all the Jess editor plugin files. I added them in exactly the corresponding subfolders as my older version of Eclipse, but have had no luck getting those files to open with the right editor. They'll open, but only as plain text, and trying to do an open with does not show the Jess Editor as an option. I restarted Eclipse a couple of times, but no luck. I also tried to follow these instructions:
"Help > Software Updates > Manage Configuration in Eclipse, and enable the JessDE feature"
but that menu doesn't actually seem to appear in Luna. Installation details under the plugins tab also doesn't seem to show the Jess editor.
Any ideas what could be going wrong here? I'd love to have just a single version of Eclipse running on my machine, instead of several...
Thanks!

I have your same problem. In mine Eclipse KEPLER version goes all right, but when I do the SAME installation in LUNA, something goes wrong.
Probably, the last version of JESS (7.1p2) doesn't is compatible with LUNA. I hope not.

FindBugs Does Not Show Up in Project Properties

I had just installed FindBugs plugin for Eclipse. My Eclipse is Juno. I am using Windows 7.
It shows up at Help -> about Eclipse -> Installed Software as FindBugs Feature
However it does not exist on Project Properties.
I had tried to run eclipse as Administrator, installing from either marketplace or manual.
But no luck.
I use a copied Eclipse (without installation) at Desktop.
Any thought on how to shows the FindBugs in project properties?
Thanks
Just in case you haven't figured out yet, and so it might help others like me.
If you are installing a version of Eclipse FindBugs 3.0 or greater, then it's only supported on Java 7.
Update your JDK to 7.0 and you will see Findbugs show up as a part of your properties. Wasted a lot of hours on this one.
I had same problem. I am using Kepler + windows 7 + jdk1.5. This got resolved with jdk update from 1.5 to 1.7.
May be it has dependency on 1.7 but there was no error message and like you said it was not visible in preference.
Check out this tutorial:
http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/Findbugs/article.html
I am using Eclipse Kepler in Windows 7, but it shouldn't make any difference.
There is also a FindBugs entry in context menu (right click project, under Import and Export options, in my case)
Edit your eclipse.ini file (you can find it in your eclipse installation folder) and change or add (if it does not exist) the -vm parameter value to a Java 7 JDK. More info here.
All other answers (installing latest Java, Eclipse update, adding '-vm ...' to the .ini-file did not work for me.
I solved it by clicking "Window"->"Perspective"->"Open Perspective"->"Other..."->"FindBugs".
Then switch back to 'Java'-perspective. Now the menu is available when you right-click the project.

jsuml is working with my eclipse IDE

I downloaded jsuml-eclipse-0.8.4 from http://jsuml.gaertner-network.de/.
I put all the plugin jars in eclipse plugin folder and start eclipse in clean mode. Still i am unable to see the plugin in plugin installed in eclipse --> preferences --> plugin.
I am using eclipse helios on mac with snowlapord OS.
If any one know some good code to UML diagram in javascript please suggest.

At least you should ensure you use Eclipse 3.7.1 (Indigo). Newer versions wont work so far since some incompatibilites have brought in but the plugin was never adapted to that.
I managed it to get jsuml working, although I'm still not able to parse my .js files in.

Eclipse Juno cannot make new project after update

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04, and to install Eclipse Juno I downloaded it from the official site (I don't use apt-get nor software center)
After updating it from help > check for updates menu, my Eclipse cannot make new project. When I hover File > New, there isn't any menu to select (as the usual Java Project, C++ Project etc.), only an unselectable text like this:
< No Applicable Items >
Anyone know what causes this?
nitind's answer above helped solve my problem. I was using eclipse java ide juno on windows and i could not see any items under File -> New or under Window -> Show View. I noticed eclipse had defaulted to using the Java-EE perspective. Following nitind's suggestion I changed it to the Java perspective and can now see all the menu items. thank you!
I had the same error when i first started the program, but i looked into it, and I saw that the workspace already had .cpp and compiled files in it which i had compiled earlier with a different program. To fix the error, I just changed the workspace to the default, and it worked fine.
I was using eclipse CDT Kepler with java 1.6.0_27. I then tried it with java 1.7.0_25 and eclipse Juno and this method resolved the error in any of these instances.
Try using the default workspace and it should work.

Nikita

Aptana Studio 3 plugin doesnt get installed properly on Eclipse Juno

I have Eclipse Juno running on 64bit windows 7, I tried installing Aptana Studio 3 plugin for eclipse. The installation goes fine, and aptana plugin shows up in the Installed plugin list too as follows:
But thats it! I cant see Aptana anywhere else in eclipse, not in preferences,perspectives, views nowhere!
A strange thing i noticed was that while installing aptana plugin, i wasn't shown any security warning dialogue box telling me that its an unsigned plugin, something that i was expecting.
Has anyone else faced this problem before? Am i going wrong anywhere? please help.
EDIT: The same problem persists with Eclipse Indigo too.
Solved it myself! after looking at the error logs i realized that i had previously added a archive file to install aptana from disk (failed attempt).It was mentioned in the logs at several places, dont know why, but when i removed that repository Aptana installed fine on eclipse. :)

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:
