Redmine Eclipse-Mylyn Plugin cannot modify tasks - eclipse

I've installed mylyn connectors for redmine and eclipse. After I executed gem install -v=2.3.5 rails and updated my RAILS_GEM_VERSION setting in config/environment.rb the plugin worked and i can connect to the repository.
I can also read tasks from the repo but I'm not able to modify them from eclipse ide. if i want to submit i cant authenticate... did I miss something? it seems, that i'm somehow stuck in a read-only mode?
I'm currently using on client side:
Eclipse/Mylyn 3.6.2
Mylyn Connector: Redmine 0.3.4.201109150625
and on server side:
Redmine 1.2.1.stable (MySQL)

My mistake was that I also checked API Key in the eclipse taskrepository setup.

Use Jira Mylyn connector with Eclipse 2020-03?

I was able to install the connector from http://update.atlassian.com/atlassian-eclipse-plugin/rest/e3.7 as suggested in:
How to use Eclipse Neon's Mylyn with Jira since connector was discontinued
How To Install Atlassian Connector On Eclipse Photon 4.8.x Version
Yet when I try to add a new repository it doesn't show Jira in there.
Is there a way to still make it work, maybe by downgrading mylyn?
There appears to be a fork here:
https://github.com/rastaman/jira-mylyn-connector
Context
This is a fork of the probably discontinued Atlassian IDE
Connector for Eclipse which work on Eclipse 4.8. It has been tested
with MacOS and Linux and as Java code it should work everywhere.
Target JIRA platforms
The connector has been lightly tested with JIRA
6.3.1 on-premise and Atlassian Cloud.
With a single release in 2018 labelled:
eclipse-connector-3.2.5.201808261123.zip
I've not tried it yet as my setup using the details on this answer to get the last release from Atlassian, and Eclipse 2020-03 (4.15.0), was working with JIRA on premises.
However we've recently migrated to JIRA Cloud and although it connects I now get this error trying to synchronise task lists:
org.codehaus.jettison.json.jsonexception jsonobject["name"] not found
I assume this is some mismatch between fields in the connector and Jira Cloud so I'll report back here once I've had time to try the forked connector.
I forked the Atlassian connector as well and updated it to work with the current Eclipse.
I just made some minor changes so that basic Jira Cloud support now works

Subversive Connectors not available

Recently i wanted to setup a new Eclipse C++ build environment with Photon etc. So i needed to install Subversive (4.0.5) and the corresponding connectors. But the connector installation failed (he won't even find any, after the installation of subversive and the restart). Is it possible, that Polarion discontinued the SVN Connector Repository because it is simply a blank site (this should be the update site of the SVN connector: http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/6.0/update-site/). Hope someone knows a solution.
As of today when I re-tested the site is back up and running again.
Someone have the files? We only need the connectors:
Subversive-connectors-6.0.4.I20161211-1700.zip
Subversive-connectors-allplatforms-6.0.4.I20161211-1700.zip

Redmine Eclipse mylyn plugin

I want to connect eclipse with redmine via mylyn plugin developed especially for redmine. I have installed plugin and connector for redmine and for eclipse.
Installation was successful both for redmine and eclipse.
The problem is when I add new query in task list, I get Unexpected status code - 404!? My redmine instance is local. Here are the details regarding the plugin, connector and my eclipse version:
Mylyn Connector: Redmine 0.3.7.201203072118 - ECLIPSE
Mylyn Connector plugin 2.8.2 stable - REDMINE
Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)
Now I know about howToMylyn on redmine site and that works as long as my projects are public and this is not useful for us because our projects are private. The generic web connector requires username and password but they are not used? So this is not the solution. And I browsed a lot.
Any kind of help is appreciated.
eclipse error
I have solved my problem. The plugin (github.com/danmunn/redmine_mylyn_connector) for redmine is not working correctly, at least for newer redmine and eclipse versions. This is the plugin that must be used for new versions: github.com/joaopedrotaveira/redmine_mylyn_connector

How to connect to Redmine from Eclipse

I have setup environment like this:
Redmine side:
Redmine: 2.2.0.stable (BitNami Windows version)
Ruby: 1.9.3
Rails: 3.2.9
Environment: production
redmine_mylyn_connector plugin: 2.8.2.stable
Eclipse side:
JavaEE IDE Juno Windows version
Mylyn Connector Redmine: 0.3.7.20120300721
I tried to add a new task repository and chose Redmine, however, after I finished the settings and clicked "Validate Settings", immediately I got a "Unexpected status code - 404" error message. So I am wondering how to get this work. I saw some people were talking about using generic web connector, but it seems from an old project and I couldn't find it anymore.
Any help would be much appreciated!
For Juno, these instructions worked for me: http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/HowTo_Mylyn#Using-the-generic-web-repository-connector
However, it looks like the Mylyn Incubator repository has gone away so that may no longer be viable.
A version exist at this url :
http://danmunn.github.io/redmine_mylyn_connector/
But it seems it's not working with eclipse juno 4.2

How do I fire up the Subversion Connections Discovery after installing the plugin in Eclipse?

I manually installed Eclipse Juno Java EE on my Ubuntu 12.04, inside the /usr/lib folder, then proceeded creating a link to the eclipse executable under /usr/bin and finally successfully started the program.
After installing the Subversive plugin, a prompt asked me to restart Eclipse, that I did since I know it's important to immediately install the connectors. However, with this setup I didn't get the Subversion Connection Discovery window on startup, nor any error in the error log view.
Now I have the Subversive plugin correctly installed, but no connector set up, and I seem not to be able to find a way for the Connection Discovery window to show up.
I would like not to use backup solutions (i.e. manually installing connectors from repositories) but solve this issue and get the normal procedure, since this is an installation I'll have to deal with for a while, and I feel this problem is a symptom of something wrong in my setup.
Create a dummy project, use Team -> Share, select SVN. The dialog should come up automatically now.
Alternatively install the connectors without the discovery dialog as described in several other SO question like: Subversive SVN Connectors does not appear in eclipse juno. You have to make sure that the update site matches your version of eclipse.
At least in my Eclipse (4.5), there is a button "Get Connectors" in the "Connectors" tab, if I visit Window/Preferences/Team/SVN. That button did the trick for me.
You will get the Subversion Connector Discovery from
Windows- Preference- Team- SVN -Svn Connector - Click on Get Connection Buttion
