Hi,

while trying to install MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench 10.1 from the provided update site, installation fails with an invalid content error:

Code:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
session context was:(profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).

Is this possibly a known issue? I couldn't find any hints on this searching the forums...

Best wishes,
Karsten

Karsten,

Sorry that you are seeing this issue.Alternatively you can use the archived update site.I have escalated it to a dev team member. They will get back to you.

Sorry for inconvenience caused.

Karsten,

We were unaware that this issue affected the update site. As Swapna pointed out, a workaround for now is to download and use the archived update site instead. Alternatively, if you do not use Maven, you can deselect that component when installing from the update - the problem occurs in two maven plugins.

We'll fix the update sites in the upcoming 10.6 build. Thank you for reporting the problem.

Hi,

using the archived update site worked perfectly.

Well, you're welcome - and thank you both for your lightning-fast response. :)
