Cannot install Nuxeo IDE on Eclipse 4.3? - check picking java7 in system path.

Hi,

The latest Nuxeo IDE package installation seems to be broken.

Using:

• Ubuntu 12.04
• Eclipse 4.3 fresh install, no additionnal packages
• Nuxeo IDE comming from http://community.nuxeo.com/static/nuxeo-ide/stable/site/

The installation runs OK, only security warning "unsigned content" appears, click Continue, all goes well to the end.

RESULT: after Eclipse restart - no trace of Nuxeo IDE plugin.

What to do?

Well same issue here with ubuntu 12.04 and oracle JDK 1.6 both with juno and kepler

Hello parom, switching to java 1.7 solved the issue for me, and switching again to 1.6 using update-java-alternatives makes nuxeo ide unusable again.

You're right, NUXEO IDE is requiring Java 1.7 for running. We have the same requirement for the SDK since 5.7.

Hello @aCordier. Indeed it works. Initially I had tested with java7 installed and used in eclipse, but it was not picked up in system path. Changing the link of /usr/bin/java to java7 have solved the problem. Thanks!
