I'm trying to install m2eclipse as I only have a standard subscription. I've uninstalled maven4myeclipse and then try to install m2eclipse.

The installation finishes, however not everything is set correctly. It seems from that the installer tries to add a mix of m2eclipse and maven4myeclipse files.

As far as I can tell maven4myeclipse is completely uninstalled, however in the features folder, the installer first adds the following folder:

org.maven.ide.eclipse.feature_0.10.0.me201003250245-18i-DdOdLTRM7SYqz0Zv

Have I missed deleting something? Is there anything else you'd suggest?

I've uninstalled maven4myeclipse

I would like to confirm you that MyEclipse is not providing Maven4MyEclipse for "standar" subscribers.For this please refer the document(http://myeclipseide.com/module-htmlpages-display-pid-1.html).

1. Can you send the screen shot of your subscription Information(MyEClipse>Subscription Information).
2. Can you copy and paste your installation details? Open MyEclipse IDE, from menu options click on MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.
3.Have you verified if the m2eclipse plugin is compatible to the base eclipse ? For e.g. ME 8.5 is based on Eclipse 3.5.2 and ME 7.5 is based on Eclipse 3.4.2
4. Can you please elaborate more on how you have installed m2eclipse plugin? Can you please share the update site / weblink?

To confirm m2eclipse is installed successfully, I would request you to check for m2eclipse is available under My Software pane in Software tab of MyEclipse Configuration center(Help>MyEclipse Configuration center).

Thanks for getting back to me. Here's the details you asked for.

1)

Code:

Subscriber: markg@limehouse.co.uk-UL6-EX2011-06-21 Product ID: E2MY (MyEclipse Standard Subscription) License version: 2.5 Full Maintenance Included Subscription expiration date (YYYYMMDD): 20110621 Number of licenses: 6

2)

Code:

*** Date: Tuesday, 29 June 2010 08:44:20 o'clock BST ** System properties: OS=WindowsXP OS version=5.1.0 Java version=1.6.0_13 *** MyEclipse details: MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench Version: 8.5 Build id: 8.5-20100319 *** Eclipse details: MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench Version: 8.5 Build id: 8.5-20100319 Eclipse startup command=-os win32 -ws win32 -arch x86 -showsplash -launcher C:\Program Files\Genuitec\MyEclipse 8.x Latest\myeclipse.exe -name Myeclipse --launcher.library C:\Program Files\Genuitec\MyEclipse 8.x Latest\../Common/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.0.200.v20090519\eclipse_1206.dll -startup C:\Program Files\Genuitec\MyEclipse 8.x Latest\../Common/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.201.R35x_v20090715.jar -install C:/Program Files/Genuitec/MyEclipse 8.x Latest -configuration configuration -clean -vm C:/Program Files/Genuitec/Common/binary/com.sun.java.jdk.win32.x86_1.6.0.013/jre/bin/client/jvm.dll

3) Yes m2eclipse plugin version 0.10.0 is compatible with ME 8.5

4) I've tried to install the plugin from the MyEclipse Configuration Center by adding the following url as a site : http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e/. I've verified under the My Software pane that the m2eclipse is installed. However, when I right click on the View Details it shows that versions are found:
0.10.0.20100209-0800
0.10.0.me201003250245-18i-Dd0dlTRM7SYqz0Zv

The second version is listed as being installed. I'm guessing this is the ME version.

Is there any way to force ME to not be used? This problem is a real show stopper for us as we're in the process of migrating to Maven.

Thanks for your help this. Let me know if you need more details.

stokiematt,

Let me correct something stated earlier. While some of our Maven support (i.e. creating MyEclipse Maven web projects - i.e. Maven4MyEclipse) are only available to PRO Subscribers, all m2eclipse features are available in MyEclipse even to standard subscribers and you do not need to install a separate version of m2eclipse at all. I would actually recommend that you go back to a clean MyEclipse install of 8.5, this already includes 0.10.0 of m2Eclipse.

Could you tell me what m2eclipse features you needed to use but were not available by default in MyEclipse?

sorry - duplicate

I am new to myeclipse. I was previously using m2eclipse on free eclipse, and opening pom files there displayed a nice graphical pom editor. MyEclipse just uses the xml editor when editing xml files. Isn't this a good enough reason to try to use m2eclipse. I've had no luck trying to install it in myeclipse. Or how do I enable that pom editor with the maven support included with myeclipse?

Never mind. The maven pom editor is there, it was not listed in the "open with" menu. I had to choose Other... and then find it in the window that pops up.
