Hi ‌,

You are right, the link to the build has been removed during the migration.

We are facing the issue.

Maybe you could grad the source code directly from github : Releases · Activiti/Activiti-Designer · GitHub.

Prior to this, i have changed following file /Activiti-Designer-master/org.activiti.designer.parent/pom.xml and change line from

<graphiti-site>http://download.eclipse.org/graphiti/updates/0.11.4</graphiti-site> to
<graphiti-site> http://archive.eclipse.org/graphiti/updates/0.11.4</graphiti-site>

As, location for graphiti site has been changed at eclipse.

After more investigation, i found reason was due to machine environment properties.

<environment>
<os>macosx</os>
<ws>cocoa</ws>
<arch>x86_64</arch>
</environment>

I have changed it to following , and it works.

<environment>
<os>win32</os>
<ws>win32</ws>
<arch>x86</arch>
</environment>
