Designer plugin installation fails each time

[guypardon]

Hi folks,

Trying to install the plugin on:

-eclipse classic helios 3.6.2 for OSX 64 bit

However, this fails each time. There is no error message, I just never get the Activity project option in the New Project wizard.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Guy

Hi,

Do you see any related messages in the error log of Eclipse?
Do you see the org.activiti.designer.* JARs in the plugins and features dirs of Eclipse?

Best regards,

I didn't see eclipse error logs and yes, the plugin jars appear to be there. The feature folder also seems ok, although it contains no jars but rather XML and property files.

I tried with 3.6.1, 3.6.2 several times to no avail…

Hi,

There's an Eclipse error log view, to which I was referring.
Please look in this view if you can see related error messages.

I also have the same confusion, install a license is not certified warning, but there are no errors, install jar package up there, and is consequently not in the new time, I almost tried all the versions of the eclipse.

I can see the org.activiti.designer.* JARs in the plugins and features dirs of Eclipse.
After the restart is complete, this option is not new activiti!!!
Almost all of the helios have tried!
What's wrong?

Hi,

I just installed the Activiti Designer using the http://www.activiti.org/designer/update site on Eclipse Helios 3.6.2 Java.
And it's working fine. The certificate warning is no problem.
Make sure you install the Activiti Designer on a fresh Eclipse installation.
As I said earlier in this thread, please look at the Error log view in Eclipse to see if there are any related errors.
Did you install it from the update site or in an other way?

Best regards,

Hi,

I (re)installed:

-Helios 3.6.2 OSX 64bit version clean install
-the designer plugin from http://activiti.org/designer/update
-disabled the "contact all update sites…" option

Result: the EMF plugins etc are all in the plugins folder, but the Activiti wizard/option is not there when I create a new project.

The Error view contains an equinox error from 4 days ago, nothing for the date/time of installation.

Our project team several people are like this, I installed a former colleague, but no problem. Why is this? Very depressed!
:shock:

I have almost all eclipse3.6.2 version over the trial!

Problem solved! Today with YaoQiang BPMN2.0 designer also encountered the same problem, I replaced the 1.6 JDK is version 1.5 on it, thank you everyone up!

Hi,
     Iam facing the same problem which guy was facing. I downloaded a brand new instance of eclipse - indigo and tried to install the activiti plugin using the update site :  http://activiti.org/designer/update/

I see the plugin jars for the activiti designer in my eclipse plugins folder, and I also find the folder ' org.activiti.designer.feature_5.8.0' in the features folder of my eclipse. However when I restrart my eclipse I don't find an activiti project in the new project creation wizard of eclipse. My env is pointing to the jdk 1.5.

I have observed the following error in the error logs of my eclipse

I have tried to install the plugin on eclipse - helios (3.6), but with the same result.

I would really appreciate if some one can point me as to how to over come this problem.
